Tokumine Shisho interview 1996 at his home.

 





Tokumine at age 25 (1951), started karate with Tatsuo Sensei.



Many times in interviews we get the wrong dates. The date he started was confirmed by Major Mike (Maekawa) who said they both started around the same time.



Advincula Question: What do you remember about Tatsuo Sensei?



Tokumine replied three things.



1. Tatsuo Driving a 16 Penny nail through a board
2. Tatsuo climbing up a telephone pole on Hwy 75
3. Tatsuo chopping and breaking a bottle with a shuto



One thing we know, Shimabuku Tatsuo Sensei was known for feats of strength.
