Hisashi is a Japanese name, but Pompey does not look Japanese, or even haafu-kokujin (son of a black man married to a Japanese, or vice versa). I wonder what led his parents to name him Hisashi.

P.S. I'm glad the sentence was commuted; I'm sorry his Marine career cannot be returned to him.

Maybe they just liked it.

I knew a black girl named Yoshi-———her mother had seen it somewhere and just thought that it was a cute name.
