    R.I.P Nishiyama sensei. I first met him in 1961 when he was included as one of the karate instructors at the Kodokan for our USAF SAC-ARDC combative measures classes. He was a very low key, pleasant man who would always speak to us and teach his skills to us American GI's. I saw him last sometime in 1962.
