Looking at the below map which can be found in the “Action Report of the Task Group 58.2”, the material number 112764 on Fold3, I wrote the story of T. Iwamoto, the 13th episode. The map can be found on page 49. My article has been published in the Sep issue of the magazine, Maru.
This map shows the planned targets which were expected to be attacked on Feb 16, 1945, so the actual targets attacked on this day were different depending on weather, and other conditions.
The maps & charts for naval actions by the US Navy were drawn using nautical miles, a mile of which is 1.852 kilometers, not a land mile, 1.609 kilometers. The lower right on this map says NAUTICAL MILES as a map scale.
