Hello ijnfleetadmiral,

1) Are After-Action Reports available for the Battle of the Philippine Sea for the following ships? (Reason I'm asking is that I know that they sometimes list the major officers assigned to the ship during the battle.)

DDs YUNAGI, SHIRATSUYU, HAMAKAZE

DE TSUGA

SSs RO-36, RO-41, RO-42, RO-43, RO-44, RO-47, RO-68, RO-104, RO-105, RO-106, RO-108, RO-112, RO-113, RO-114, RO-115, RO-116, RO-117

YUNAGI 夕凪: Not left
HAMAKAZE 浜風: Not left
TSUGA 栂: Not left
RO-Submarines: I could find the data.

27th Destroyer Division Wartime Diary (1 June 1944 ~ ) is left.
It contains bellow destroyers;
白露 SHIRATSUYU: Only cover is reft.
夕暮 YUGURE: Not left (Sunk)
有明 ARIAKE: Not left (Sunk)
時雨 SHIGURE: See the below;
Commanding Officer: CDR MATSUDA Kuro 松田九郎 (55)
Gunnery Officer: LT FUKUDOME Toru 福留徹 (70)
Torpedo Officer: LT (S.D.) YOSHIZATO Misoyo 吉里三十四
Navigation Officer: ISHIMARY Fumiyoshi 石丸文義 (71)
Engineer Officer: LT (Eng.S.D.) NARAYAMA Sakae 楢山境

2) Could the following be correct for MOGAMI?
Damage Control Officer
LT / LCDR* TAMEKUNI Takizo (Spec. Duty) - 1 December 1943 - 25 October 1944 (KIA) (carried over from Operations Officer)

I think you say about TAMEKUNI Takizo 為国瀧三.
I think the above is incorrect. What I have for him are;
MOGAMI Unyocho: ??? - 1 December 1943 (16 C12070732100)
MOGAMI Division Officer: 1 December 1943 - ??? (16 C12070732100)
(MOGAMI Naimusho post was absent.)
TAKEYAMA Naval Barack Division Officer: ??? - 27 April 1945 (37 C12070739300)
IWATE Naimucho: 27 April 1945 - 15 August 1945 (37 C12070739300)

3) I know CHIYODA's Gunnery Officer at the time of her loss was LT / LCDR* UEHARA Kozo (Spec. Duty 15). Could he also have been her Gunnery Officer during the Battle of the Philippine Sea?

CHIYODA
Unyochos
LT (S.D.) / LT (S.D.) OSAKABE Kinsaku 小坂部金作: 1 August 1943 -1 December 1943 (45 C12070720300)
Naimuchos
LT (S.D.) / LT (S.D.) OSAKABE Kinsaku 小坂部金作: 1 December 1943 - 12 December 1943 (8 C12070723500
LT (S.D.) / ??? KUNO DSenzaburo 久野伝三郎: 12 December 1943 - ??? (8 C12070723500)
(Yokosuka Naval Distinct)
Gunnery Officers
LT (S.D.) / ??? SUZUKI Yoshiyoshi 鈴木義治: 28 August 1943 - ??? (13 C12070721100)
LT (S.D.) / LT (S.D.) / LCDR* UEHARA Kozo 上原幸蔵 : ??? - 25 October 1944 (KIA)
(Yokosuka Naval Distinct)

4) I know CHIYODA's Communications Officer at the time of her loss was LT / LCDR* TAKAHASHI Shotaro (Spec. Duty). Could he also have been her Communications Officer during the Battle of the Philippine Sea?

LT (A.D.) / ??? ANAZAWA Kimpachi 穴沢金八: 25 December 1943 - ??? (28 C12070723700)
LT (S.D.) / LT (S.D.) / LCDR* TAKAHASHI Shotaro 高橋正太郎: ??? - 25 October 1944 (KIA)
(Yokosuka Naval Distinct)
I found that LTJG 高橋正太郎 was appointed Division Officer on 13 January 1944 (33 C12070752700). I checked Yokosuka Naval District documents twice on a day-by-day basis, but could not get the results for some posts unfortunately.

5) Is there any information on who was the CO of IJN auxiliary tanker AZUSA MARU?

According to AZUSA Maru Action Report (1 June 1944 - 30 June 1944), the Captain was HAMAYA Giichi 浜谷義一.

Awesome...thanks! Questions:

1) For SHIRATSUYU, could the following be correct?
Chief Engineers
(E) LT / LT HANADA Shigeyoshi (Eng. 47) - 10 October 1942 - 10 June 1943
LT NARAYAMA Sakae (Spec. Duty) - 10 June 1943 - 15 June 1944

2) Did NARAYAMA survive SHIRATSUYU's sinking?

3) For MOGAMI, was the position of Naimucho absent from 1 December 1943 until her loss on 25 October 1944? I have it being filled by an unknown officer at some point, as this person was listed as being KIA in her final battle. TIA for any info.

4) For CHIYODA Naimuchos, I have KUBO Denzaburo as being KIA aboard her on 25 October 1944.

5) For CHIYODA Communications Officers, I now have the following:
(EO) - LT OTAGURO Yasuo (52) – 29 June 1938 - 10 September 1938
LT OTAGURO Yasuo (52) - 10 September 1938 – 14 October 1938
LT / LCDR TAKAGI Toshifumi (52) – 14 October 1938 - 15 December 1938
LCDR SANO Shigeshi (52) - 15 December 1938 - 1 November 1939
LT OKAJIMA Jiro (59) - 1 November 1939 - 1 May 1940
LCDR TAKAHASHI Eiichi (51) - 1 May 1940 - 15 November 1940
VACANT - 15 November 1940 - 25 December 1943
LT ANAZAWA Kimpachi (Spec. Duty) - 25 December 1943 - ???
LT / LCDR* TAKAHASHI Shotaro (Spec. Duty) - ??? - 25 October 1944 (KIA)

6) For AZUSA MARU...awesome! I'm guessing he was a civilian Merchant Captain, as I don't have an officer by that name listed in my Eta Jima Graduates?
