Frederick Kozoma was a Draconis Combine officer who would be remembered by history as the executioner of Coordinator Zabu Kurita.

History[edit]

Executioner[edit]

Frederick Kozoma was a General in the DCMS High Strategic Council and the Procurement Evaluation Board. When they received the budget for 2839 and saw a 4 percent cut in DCMS military budget he was enraged. He and several other generals decided that Zabu Kurita had to die, and he was selected as the executioner.[1]

When he finally faced Zabu, he found him with one of his concubines. When he was asked if he was acting alone or if he represented the other generals as well, and was told that he was acting in accord with the views of most of the military High Command, Zabu gave a slight nod. After asking his concubine to leave, he offered one of the swords from Kurita's collection to Frederick and after completing the correct seppuku rituals, was beheaded by Frederick himself.

While interrogated by ISF, General Frederick did not understand Zabu's ability to meet death so honorably and asked himself if Zabu could have been a better man than the Generals had imagined.[2]
