Hi all,
Sorry to re-post this, I think I had it in the wrong section.
I am doing some 'back history' on our Martial arts club here in New Zealand and I have come to a small halt, In June 1906 a group of Japanese 'obtained a position from the American Government' to instruct Martial arts to the San Francisco, Sacramento and Los Angeles Police force (for 18 months). One of the party was Mr Kiyo Kameda, who ended up settling in New Zealand.
My Question is, does anyone have any information about the group, where they were from?who was the leader of the party (Sensei)? did any of the Japanese stay in the U.S.
Hopefully I will have better luck this time.
Regards Scott
