Kazuo Mizutani
Kazuo Mizutani was chief of staff to Takeshi Mori, commander of the First Imperial Guards Division, at the end of World War II.
Mizutani was in his office, listening to Col. Masataka Ida's explanation of a plot to prevent Japan's surrender, when Gen. Mori was killed by the lead conspirator, Maj. Kenji Hatanaka. He then went with Ida to the headquarters of the Eastern District Army to report the murder.
