    1. I just came back from Japan 3 weeks ago and visited the Mikasa with a friend of mine, Warren Sessler. They have a new display in the center of the ship, two floors down, with all of Admiral Togo's awards, including the Marshal's badge. My friend Warren, once had the largest Japanese Orders and Medals collection in the world in the late 1960s, and worked with Peterson on the OMSA monograph (first edition). Most of the pieces in the book once belonged to Warren. He stated that the last time he visited the Mikasa, only a small portion of Togo's pieces were present, but it now appears that they have decided to display them all. I highly recommend visiting the ship if you go to Tokyo. It's only about an hour and a half to two hour train ride away.
