  • Yukio Seki was born 1921 in Iyo Saijō, a small town in Shikoku. His parents ran an antiques store specializing in tea ceremony utensils. At an early age, Seki was exposed to Naval training courses at his middle school and planned a career in the Navy. Since naval personnel were fully prepared to die in battle, and since Yukio was an only child, the family adopted a daughter nearly Yukio's age to carry on the family affairs. In 1938 he tried to get to the War Academy of both the Imperial Navy and the ground forces. He was accepted to both of them and he chose navy, attending the Japanese Naval Academy at Eta-Jima. During this time his father died and his mother closed the antiques shop and lived alone. In 1941, one month before the Pearl Harbor attack, Seki graduated and was ordered to the Battleship Fusō. In June of the same year he was promoted to Lieutenant. Soon he was transferred to the seaplane carrier Chitose.
