 State v. Yamamoto
Yamamoto demurred, insisting that she would "listen to him this one time, hear what he had to say." Ebata was shocked at the turn of events and tried to break free, but could not.
Yamamoto remembered that he was in such a state of bliss over the return of Ebata and their son that he acceded to Kobayashi's suggestion that Kobayashi's friends be brought in to run the business and sell it for Yamamoto.
Yamamoto remembered that Ebata got into his car, but when asked whether he waved the knife at her to get her in the car, responded, "I don't remember that part." Yamamoto claimed a similar lack of memory of succeeding events, up until he was driving with Ebata past a fire station.

Yamamoto was ordered to prepare for an attack on America as she was the only real threat to Japanese expansion in the Pacific.

 Magic and Lightning - March 2006
Yamamoto’s goal at Pearl Harbor was annihilation of the US Pacific Fleet, achievement of which would have decided the outcome of the war “on the first day,” wrote his biographer, Hiroyuki Agawa.
Yamamoto was due back in Truk, but he planned to make one more trip to the front to emphasize to his pilots the absolute necessity of holding air superiority.
From then on, Yamamoto was just as concerned with technology as he was with tactics, and he was instrumental in shaping the Japanese Navy into the sophisticated fighting force it was by the time of Pearl Harbor.

 Masao Yamamoto - S.K. Josefsberg Studio
Working from a Zen philosophy of "emptiness", Masao Yamamoto's images are essentially vignettes of nature and our intersection with it, ruminating over the passage of time and memory.
Yamamoto’s series began in 1993 as “A Box of Ku”—ku meaning “emptiness” in Japanese—and currently continues under the title “Nakazora,” which has an even more enigmatic definition (a Buddhist term): The space between sky and earth, the place where birds, etc. fly.
Yamamoto’s work, whether one is viewing a singular image or a grouping of images, is not evolutionary, nor a progression.

 Isoroku Yamamoto - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Yamamoto is considered to be one of the Imperial Japanese Navy's most talented and most influential naval strategists and tacticians and is highly respected in Japan, and to a lesser extent, the United States for both tactical prowess and for preventing his men from committing war crimes.
Much has been made of Yamamoto's hindsight and wishful thinking, but it is instructive to note that he did not punish Nagumo in any way for his withdrawal, which was, after all, according to plan, and the prudent course to take.
According to Hamasuna, Yamamoto had been thrown clear of the plane's wreckage, his white-gloved hand grasping the hilt of his katana, still upright in his seat under a tree.

 Amazon.com: Bushido: The Way of the Samurai (Square One Classics): Books: Tsunetomo Yamamoto,Justin F. Stone,Minoru ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
Although Yamamoto requested that the work never be published, the Hagakure—literally meaning "hidden behind the leaves"—did survive, influencing the development of a culture and serving as the basis of Bushido, the way of the samurai.
The Hagakure was dictated by Yamamoto and later scribed verbatim by Tsuramoto Tashiro over a period of seven years (1710-1716) in which they lived together in a far off mountain retreat in Japan.
Yamamoto's basic premise was that the Samurai could not serve two masters (religion and the Clan) and by doing so had become less effective.

 Stereophile: Yamamoto A-08 power amplifier
Finally, although the Yamamoto was commendably free from hum, the Lamms were even more so—as they should be with DC on their filaments.
Here's one more thing some elder audiophiles won't want to hear: The Yamamoto A-08 was fun to have, fun to use, fun to look at, fun to swap tubes in and out of, and, most of all, fun to listen to.
The Yamamoto A-08 stands alongside the Lamms, the Fis, the Wavacs, the Komuros, the Wavelengths, and other handcrafted amplifiers in its aspiration to transmit the soul of music by embodying some of the soul of its maker.
