Re: Japanese Records

Some of the type records you mnetion (full or partial text) can be found in ATIS (Allied Translator and Interrogator Service , SWPA) or other (PACMIRS, JICPOA) translations. ATIS is available in hard copy at US and Australian Archives (possibly others, MacArthur) and microform at various sites. No good index exists; be prepared to spend hundres (or more hours) exploiting the material. In addition intercepted radio messages also provide some such info (e.g. RG 38 'Crane' documents). ATIS records not translated were returned to Japan 5-0+ yrs ago.
