And the Lt. Moriyasu Hidaka himself, on Truk island. Wonder what text on his boots say.

It looks like "A１－３號 日高機"
Airframe A1-3 for Hidaka.

Excellent, Hidaka-san's aircraft code would be unknown at this point but, his boot shows the main portion of the aircraft designator of A1-3-??? A1 for the First Carrier Division, '3' for the third Carrier within the division, the others being A1-1 Zuikaku and A1-2 Shokaku.
