Re: H6K loss on 31 December 1941
I feel that the best published reference on the USS Heron is Dwight Messimer's In the Hands of Fate: The Story of Patrol Wing Ten: 8 December 1941 - 11 May 1942 (Naval Institute Press 1985). I believe that its story is also covered in Walter G. Winslow's, The Fleet the Gods Forgot: The U.S. Asiatic Fleet in World War II (1982).
However neither include the names of the Japanese pilot and crew.
