Younger brother?

I have read that Tomoji Tanabe has a living younger brother, Hiroshi Tanabe, at age 103. Can anyone confirm that? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.60.205.172 (talk) 17:59, 19 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Interesting question: can anyone confirm this? Extremely sexy 17:03, 20 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Why not show us your source and we can decide whether it's legit or not? Anyways, try doing a Google search on "Hiroshi Tanabe." And then another 1 with Tomoji next to the name. I tried doing that and no luck. Neal (talk) 00:48, 30 January 2008 (UTC).[reply]

Is he a World War 1 Veteran?

Has anyone ever checked to see if he served in the Japanese military during World War 1? Militaries have historically been good places to teach surveying (his profession). JeepAssembler (talk) 22:19, 22 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

What would Japan be doing in World War I? Neal (talk) 00:50, 27 March 2008 (UTC).[reply]

During World War 1 Japan seized Germany's colonial holdings in China and the Pacific Ocean; it also sent a Naval Squadron to assist the attempted British invasion of Turkey's Gallipoli Peninsula in 1915. I am involved on the "Known Surviving Veterans of World War I" wikipedia page and am looking for any Japanese veterans of that war who were still alive after January 1st, 1999. 66.213.36.2 (talk) 19:41, 5 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Mr. Tanabe is the 16th oldest

171. El Hadj Mohammed El Mokri 112 259+ 1844-September 16, 1957

Hello, I was just checking the truth of the statement "As of April 2008, Tanabe ranks among the top 15 oldest men ever." I just wanted to know if the El Hadj Mohammed El Mokri case was validated because it is on Mr. Epstein's list. 1. Shigechiyo Izumi 120 237 June 29, 1865-February 21, 1986

16. Tomoji Tanabe 112 212+ September 18, 1895-

According to Mr. Epstein's list he is the 16th oldest man.

On Mr. Epstein's list it also says that [Gunther's INSIDE AFRICA claims he was younger, born in 1851 or so, and some sources even say born in 1854]

There are other cases on this list are also disputed such as Izumi and Beard. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.136.250.83 (talk) 01:32, 16 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

His case is as disputed as Izumi's (Beard's is the most probable one of the three in fact). Extremely sexy (talk) 15:27, 19 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
