1) I would imagine that for the late-war, 'NO DATA' notes for some of the battleships, the position of Navigator would be Vacant, as by this time HARUNA, ISE, HYUGA, and NAGATO were moored as training ships and/or floating antiaircraft batteries and would therefore have no need for a Navigator aboard. Thoughts?

1) I have conflicting dates for one of KONGO's Secondary Gunnery Officers:
IWAKI Shigeru
CHOKAI Communications Officer - 1 December 1938 - 1 May 1940
KONGO Secondary Gunnery Officer - 1 December 1938 - 10 October 1939

2) I have conflicting dates for two of HIEI's Secondary Gunnery Officers:

4) For ISE, MOROOKA Isamu (62) remained AA Gunnery Officer until ISE was sunk on 28 July 1945. He was promoted LCDR on 1 May 1944, and appointed Acting CO of Ise from 24-28 July 1945.

5) For ISE, was the position of AA Gunnery Officer created/established on 1 August 1943?

NAKANO Eiyo (YAMASHIRO): 中野栄誉 (Special Duty Class 5)
SUZUKI Chusuke (NAGATO): 鈴木仲助 (Appointed from a reserve officer?)
MAEDA Yasuhiko (NAGATO): 前田安彦 (64)
TAGUCHI Hironari (MUTSU): 田口広成 (46)

1) I have conflicting dates for one of KONGO's Secondary Gunnery Officers:
IWAKI Shigeru
CHOKAI Communications Officer - 1 December 1938 - 1 May 1940
KONGO Secondary Gunnery Officer - 1 December 1938 - 10 October 1939

You have misread IWAKI Hideo.
IWAKI Hedeo 石城英夫 (50)
CHOKAI Communications Officer - 1 December 1938 - 1 May 1940
IWAKI Shigeru 岩城繁 (53)
KONGO Secondary Gunnery Officer - 1 December 1938 - 10 October 1939

2) I have conflicting dates for two of HIEI's Secondary Gunnery Officers:
I have OBATA Chozaemon (43) as posted Gunnery Officer of YURA on 25 October 25 October 1927, and YANAGIMOTO RYUSAKU (44) as posted to the Staff of 2nd Expeditionary Fleet from 1 December 1927 - 10 December 1928.

OBATA Chozaemon
HIEI Secondary Gunnery Officer: LT / LCDR: 1 December 1926 - 25 October 1928
YURA Gunnery Officer: LCDR / LCDR: 25 October 1928 - 15 November 1929

I have mistaken the appointed date of HIEI Secondary Gunnery Officer.
was:
LCDR / LCDR YANAGIMOTO Ryusaku: 25 October 1928 - 5 September 1929
is:
LCDR / LCDR YANAGIMOTO Ryusaku: 10 December 1928 - 5 September 1929

3) For YAMASHIRO, was the position of AA Gunnery Officer created/established on 17 June 1944?

Unfortunately I don’t know.

4) For ISE, MOROOKA Isamu (62) remained AA Gunnery Officer until ISE was sunk on 28 July 1945. He was promoted LCDR on 1 May 1944, and appointed Acting CO of Ise from 24-28 July 1945.

Acting system was abolished in 1924. I guess that he became Comanding Officer temporarily.

5) For ISE, was the position of AA Gunnery Officer created/established on 1 August 1943?

Unfortunately I don’t know.

6) Is this correct for HYUGA Secondary Gunnery Officers?
VACANT - 20 February 1940 - 24 April 1940

Yes.

7) Is this correct for MUTSU Secondary Gunnery Officers?
VACANT - 1 November 1927 - 1 December 1927

Yes.

Hello ijnfleetadmiral,

Could you post the Kanji for the following officers?
