These terms vrhicli occur too often to be located in detsil should be corrected wherever they are found as follows: a. The Japanese phrase "X hi" is translated by ATIS as "D Day." In the interests of clarity it is believed preferable to adhere to the original text and translate it as "X Day" v/herever it occurs. b. The Japanese terra "kimitsu" is translated by ATIS as "ultra secret." It is believed that this more properly should be translated as "top secret" in ev-'ry case where it is found in the text. c. The Japanese phrase "sakusen hSshin" is trans- lated by ATIS as "operation policy.、. The more correct translation is "operational p l a n . " 2. In addition the following specific corrections and emendations should be made to the ATIS translation: Pa系e 2/1 2/1 2/1 2/3 Line 2 (Under phrase "Flagship Nagato") 9 Error xx in accordance with the separate volume.

Bay 5 November 1944'by pl-mes from the USS LEXINGTON. In the letter p.:rt of March, 194-5, reports by pilots of aircraft attached to the LEXINGTON were used in obtaining G. rough fix of the location of the NACHI. A search w.?.s n-de by IP 421 which located たnd buoyed the ^rock. A special party of officers including Lieutenant (jg) Albert A l t m n , USNH, and nyself, vas sent r.s .ニn Intelligence te:.m from the Floet Intelligence Center, Manila, for the purpose of obtaining the -ships 1 papers fron the hull of the NACKI. On 2 April 1945, which was the third d?.y after the beginning of diving operations, salvage clivers brought up fron the NACHI a bundle wrapped in burlap which they had found in the charthouse of the MACHI. Upon surfacing, the divers delivered the bundle to Lieutenant Altman and rne. 15 'e took the bundle to Manila in a crash boat and delivered it to our Intelligence Tean Headquarters at 77 Delpan Street, Manila， on the night of 2 April 1945. The bundle v/as then opened by nyself, Lieutenant (jg) Altrian, Lieutenant (jg) B. K. Carlson, and Lieutenant (jg) G, '”• Wattles. " T e n^de a precis of the HACHI docunents con- tained in the bundle. We then stowed the docunents in' m i l bags and had them taken to Tolosa by Lieutenant Lawrence F. Ebb, USNR. Ee then transferred the bags to Cantain Arthur H. McCollnn, USN, the 7th Fleet Intelligence Officer, who caused the documents to be riicro-filned because they were in an advanced stage of deterioration resulting fron prolonged D o c . N o . 1 7 Page 2 . Innersicn in salt '/ater. Captain McCollun then forwarded the papers and the copy of the r.icro-filn to Allied Trans- lator and Interpreter Section, SWPA (ATIS), Brisbane, Australia where they were received by Colonel Sidney F. Mashbir for ATIS. Ke caused translations fron Japanese to English to be riade of all of the KACIJI docLments. The ATIS translations were pub- lished as Linited Distribution Translation 39, Parts I to XII, of which Part VIII includes Combined Fleet Top Secret Operatior. Order M o . 1 and Order No, 2. 4-. ATIS then (in July,1945) forwarded the papers and. the nicro-filr to the Ofiice of Intelligence, Navy Department, shinヶ ten, D e C., where I received, then into ny custody. The docmaents nicro-filn remained in ny custody until April, 194-6, v/hen they came into the custody of the T 7ashint:ton Document Center, in charge of Captain Ranson Fullinwir'.er, Steuart Building, ^ashinrton,' D. C., where they a re now kept. 5. Photostats and riicro-filns have been made of these NACHI docurients. I have assenbled the attached photostats and nicro-filns and I find that they are identical \/ith the original NACHI doennents. I have exanined also the trans- lations of these docur.ents fron Japanese into English a s prepared and published by ATIS and I consider the translations to be correct except for three technical corrections on minor points, namely, the USG of the tern striking force instead of task force, the use of the tern "D-Day" instead of "Z-Day", and the omission fron a chart of one uninportant colur.in ? as shown by a translation which I have provided. The original NACHI docurients are in such condition that handling or shipping would d e s t r o y their legibility. For that reason these original papers cannot be removed fron their present location in the Washington Docnrient Center. 6. The English translation of these documents appears in Pages 1 - 5 9 of ATIS Linited Distribution Translation Ho. 39， Part VIII. The dociments are entitled "Combined Fleet Top Secret Operation Order No.1",dated 5 November 1941, End Conbined Fleet Top Secret Operation Order No. 2, dated 7 Nov snber 1941. 13 day of July 1946. /s/ Jo.nes J, Robinson l T ane (Status indicating authority to take oaths) Captain, USHR， 52853 IaL ROBEHT I.
