At 62, Bob Eichelberger was going into retirement...

...appreciation of General Eichelberger. The Emperor invited him to lunch-a rare courtesy. Prince Takamatsu, the Emperor's brother, came to tea with the general and his wife Emma (who through the war, and after, got a letter a day from her husband until she joined him in Yokohama).
