He would become an ace during the Second Sino-Japanese War and in the Pacific theatre of World War II. His early successes came in the skies over China where he shot down 8 Chinese aircraft, with both his A5M4 (W-102) and an [[A6M]] which he was piloting as part of combat trials with other high-ranking Navy pilots.
