| Content: | This is an Allied Translator and Interpreter Section (ATIS) translation of a Japanese publication captured at Hollandia (Jayapura) on 30 April 1944 during the Allied attacks on Japanese positions in northern Dutch New Guinea, which were intended to isolate the 18th Army at Wewak. This item is an alphabetical list of 289 sea trucks (including tankers, water supply ships, refrigeration ships and salvage ships), compiled in May 1943 by Shipping Headquarters. It lists name, capacity, tonnage, speed, engine type, manufacturer, fuel capacity and consumption. Presumably this listing relates to vessels being used on operations in the Pacific theatre. |
