I am trying to find where the Battleship Musashi (as built) 13 mm AA guns were placed, before upgrades were made.

Thank you,
Wayne

I can't speak for any film of the real ship but Otoko Tachi No Yamato was released in Japan in 2005. It's the tale of the last fateful voyage of the ship and, overall, it is quite well done. For more details, check out the listing for it on imdb.com.

Cheers,

Has anyone ever seen any motion picture film of the Musashi or the Yamato?

I saw a VHS movie that was made in Japan in the early 50's that was titled 'Yamato', it featured a
survivor who played himself in the movie. For more on this movie look up the book 'A Glorious Way to Die'
by Russell Spurr.
