Yoshi is a driver for the Imperial Japanese Army on Lakanuki Island. He is in charge of the refuelling truck. Always impeccable in his freshly-pressed uniform, he wheels the Isuzu TX-40 around the airfield servicing army and navy planes as they land and take off.
Everyone else on the island is dressed in rags and covered in tropical sores, but Yoshi looks as fresh as the day he joined the army. His truck is spotless and even the tyres are polished.
It is rumoured that his uncle is The Emperor, but no-one is game to ask if that’s true. They find it’s safer just to bow and let him get on with it…
