After World War II Sakamaki returned to Japan
he worked for the Toyoda Motor Corp. Sent to
South America where he became President of Toyoda's Brazilian subsidiary in 1969.
He returned to Japan in 1983 and continued to
work until he retired in 1987. He died in 1999 at age 81.

During World War II, Sakamaki's sub,that was
captured intact,was taken on tours across the
U.S.A. encouraging the buying of war bonds.
