Awesome...thanks! Two things:

1) I do not have an officer named YOSHIKAWA Tadayoshi in my records. However, I do have an officer named YOSHIKAWA Tadaki from Eta Jima Class 46. Are these the same person?

2) I have NAKAGAWA Toshiya as a Paymaster, not a Surgeon Officer. He was posted Paymaster of ISUZU on 19 October 1944. Or are these two different officers with the same names?

Yes they are the same person.

2) I have NAKAGAWA Toshiya as a Paymaster, not a Surgeon Officer. He was posted Paymaster of ISUZU on 19 October 1944. Or are these two different officers with the same names?

It was my mistake.
LTJG NAKAGAWA Toshiya was Supply Officer.

Awesome...thanks! Two things:

1) I do not have an officer by the name of UCHINO Shinji in my records. I do, however, have a officer by the name of UCHINO Nobukazu from Eta Jima Class 50. Is this the same person?

2) I do not have an officer by the name of KUNISHIMA Kiichi in my records. I do, however have an officer by the name of KUNISHIMA Kitsu from Eta Jima Class 53. Is this the same person?
