How can I track fate of A6M2 pilots atacking PH?

Hello
I have a long since dream to find out the names of all the A6M2 pilots atacking Pearl Harbour on that infamous day dec.7th 1941.
Unfortunately everything I checked was either innacurate or (at best )incomplete.
I want to know if is anyone in possession of the most accurate documentation regarding the zero pilots on the 6 carriers and what was their ultimate fate.(with the date of there pow, kia,mia, wia amd no more combat)
How much can I pay for this info? Or in exchange I can put down the fate of about 50 pilots I already know of. But there are still some other 65 I have no ideea whatsoever.
All I want is to get this as soon as possible.
Kind regards, Bogdan

There is a Model Art special that IIRC names all pilots (or at least a LOT of them), seperated in wave and type of a/c, in many cases with profile.

Of course you need a Japanese translator to get the most out of it.

Should go a long way with books like Hata and Lundstrom et al.
