Zf335. This photo is from Tony Feredo, in my opinion, he is is walking dictionary about WWII in the Philippines. He said this:
The first meeting of King during his surrender was actually with Major General Kameichiro Nagano, IJA 21st Div Infantry Commander at Lamao . However Nagano was not in a position to discuss formal terms of the surrender so that is why King had to meet with Col Nakayama who was Homma’s representative for the 14th Army. Attached is a photo of King with Nagano (seated).
There were several photos taken by both the Japanese Propaganda corps as well as the IJA own unit photographers that made it to various publications after the fall of the Philippines. Some of them also appeared on specialized photo books like what the IJA 16th Division during their 41-42 campaign in the Philippines.
Cheers,
Tony
