Thank you for adding ships to subject list. I wonder if your reference lists the death tolls aboard Aden Maru, Taijima Maru and Tenshinzan Maru sunk by USS Gurnard on 6 May 1944? My reference listed only the total casualties for all three ships, and I made estimates by dividing that total evenly among the three ships; but those estimates should be corrected if information is available.Thewellman (talk) 09:10, 17 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Thewellman. Report about Take-Ichi Convoy by All Japan Seamen's Union Museum say,
  • Yoshida Maru No.1 (第一吉田丸) - 2649 dead (2586 soldiers of 32D, 2 army ship guards, 61 seamen)
  • Aden Maru (亜丁丸) - 523 dead (507 soldiers of 35D, 4 guards and 12 seamen)
  • Taijima Maru (但馬丸) - 70 dead (58 soldiers of 35D, 9 guards and 3 seamen)
  • Amatsusan Maru (天津山丸, Tenshinzan Maru is miss pronunciation) - 95 dead (all 32D soldiers).
Sources of the Report are Senshi Sōsho and The List of Lost Ships in military transport missoins (部隊輸送間における遭難船舶一覧, This is the report by IJA Shipping Division just after the end of WW2). --Snlf1 (talk) 12:47, 17 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
