Dates of victories by VMF-216/217 pilots in Feb 1945

[Lagarto]

I'm looking for dates (and locations, if possible) of victories scored by VMF-216/217 pilots (and the pilots' squadron assignment) in February 1945, when they served aboard USS Wasp.
The list of pilots with air victories at the end of February 1945 is as follows but some of these victories must have been scored before that month:

Capt. Robert Read: 1 Betty, 1 Rufe
Lt. Charles Cochran: 1 Judy
Lt. Vernon Salisbury: 1 Zeke
Lt. James Seay: 1 Oscar
Lt. William Stratton: 1 Zeke

One more question: one 17th February 1945 the Wasp Corsairs reportedly attacked (sank?) a light aircraft carrier in Yokohama Harbor. Did they really, and if so, what was the name of the ship?

Some answers:

16 Feb: Salisbury shot down the Zeke that was thought to have accounted for Maj. Amende, near Hamamatsu

17 Feb: Seay and Stratton made their claims near Haneda A/F

The escort carrier Yamashiro Maru was bombed and sunk at Yokohama. Hits were claimed by aircraft from Hornet and Wasp.

Yamashiro Maru! Thank you!
Talking about ships... On 1st March 1945 Task Force 58 mounted a series of strikes against Okinawa. At Naha VMF-216/217 pilots spotted a destroyer, probably of the Matsu Class, approaching the harbor. Hit by HVAR rockets, the ship ran aground, and was left badly burning. I've checked all Matsu Class destroyers but couldn't find a matching case. Any idea what ship it could be?

Aircraft from both Wasp and Hornet claimed to have attacked and sunk a "DE" near Naha on 1 March. The probable candidate is the torpedo boat Manazuru which was lost that day in the same area.

Thank you very much for all the info. I have one more question. On 11th November 1944 Corsairs of VMF-114, stationed at Peleliu, reported sinking a “Wakataki class destroyer” moored at Ngargol Island. Maj. Jack Conger (a double ace) scored a direct hit with 1000 lb. bomb. The squadron diary says: “Two fires, a big explosion and flying debris which filled up most of the narrow channel to the north between Kobasang Harbor and Station Harbor, spelled the end of that ill-fated ship.” Any chance to identify that ship?

The minesweeper W-22 is a possibility, but is fate varies depending of sources:
