The crash site and body of Yamamoto were found on April 19, the day after the attack, by a Japanese search-and-rescue party led by army engineer Lieutenant Tsuyoshi Hamasuna. The journey to America proved unnecessary, as by the time Kolchak arrived, the US had given up the idea of any independent action in the Dardanelles. The outcome was in doubt to the very end, when War Admiral won by a nose. The Washington Handicap was marketed as the second race of the century, the first one being Sir Bartons 1920 race with War Admirals sire, Man o War. The decrypted text revealed that on April 18 Yamamoto would fly from Rabaul to Balalae Airfield, on an island near Bougainville in the Solomon Islands.

As a military commander he was unable to make successful strategic plans or to coordinate with other White Army generals such as Yudenich or Denikin. He became the fourth horse to win the coveted Triple Crown.

Yamamoto, commander of the Combined Fleet of the Imperial Japanese Navy, was killed on Bougainville Island when his transport aircraft was shot down by United States Army Air Forces fighter aircraft operating from Kukum Field on Guadalcanal. Zero pilot Kenji Yanagiya, who had been in Yamamoto's fighter escort, told John Mitchell he might have been responsible for the loss of Lieutenant Raymond Hine because he had heavily damaged a P-38 (escorting another Lightning that had not dropped its fuel tanks), although neither he nor any of the other Zero pilots had claimed a P-38 that day.
