Tanaka Masumi

[Aaron Gerow]

Wujung reminds me of the issue of Tanaka-san's name reading. The Library of Congress reads 真澄 as Masumi--which is how I usually read it. But the Diet Library reads it as Masasumi. I seem to recall him saying "Masumi," but perhaps that was a nickname and his real name was Masasumi?
