hi.

if you're interested, i have all the relevant jap monographs about sub ops and then some. ordered from milspecmanuals myself. i'll make them available to you for free.

monographs:

95, 102, 110, 111, 163, 171, 184 - Submarine Operations
102 - as part of "Pacific War Papers, Japanese Documents of WW2"

116-5 organisation of the submarine forces
116-9 summary of submarine losses
118 operational history of japanese naval communications
125 surface escorting operations
145, 149, 160, 169, 172, 174 outline of naval armament and preparations for war
161 gilbert islands operations - surface, but might help
83 okinawa operations - idem
88 aleutian operations - same
90 A-Go operation
91 supplement to 90 - various tabulations and appendixes
93 midway operations
98,99 southeast area naval operations

also:

US strategic bomb survey - interrogations of japanese naval personnel
plus plenty of books on various subjects adjacent or congruent with the pacific submarine war.

all the files are available on an internet accessible NAS; as i said i'll provide access for free, PM for details.
of course, if you're feeling generous and have some electronic instances of ONI 208 J and/or other recognition manuals, i won't say no.

PS: since peabody mentioned this: as works of an US government employee, all these documents are in public domain. with the exception of some sub ops monographs all are available for free on sites such as ibiblio, wikisource, project gutenberg. there is no piracy involved. and no, mil spec manuals cannot claim rights for the electronic version; they can charge a "copying and distribution fee" but cannot prevent you from giving away your copy for free or receiving a copy from someone for free since they can't claim any rights over it as all they did was make an (electronic) copy of the original public documents; it is not a derived work.

"The court case Bridgeman Art Library Ltd. v. Corel Corporation established that exact photographic copies of public domain works of art are not copyrightable under United States law."
