1 person found this helpfulDear Mr. Hanyok,
Thank you for posting your request on History Hub!
We searched the National Archives Catalog and located the series Translation Report of Intercepted Japanese Naval Attache Messages, ca. 1952 - 1980 in the Records of the National Security Agency/Central Security Service (Record Group 457) that includes 2,979 file units. This is the listing you seek. It is searchable by returning to the series description and clicking on the “Search within this Series” and type the number or the partial name of the document or topic in the search box. For access to the documents, please contact the National Archives at College Park - Textual Reference (RDT2) at archives2reference@nara.gov.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and pursuant to guidance received from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), NARA has adjusted its normal operations to balance the need of completing its mission-critical work while also adhering to the recommended social distancing for the safety of NARA staff. As a result of this re-prioritization of activities, you may experience a delay in receiving an initial acknowledgement as well as a substantive response to your reference request from RDT2. We apologize for this inconvenience and appreciate your understanding and patience.
We hope this is helpful. Best of luck with your research!

Re: Seeking finding aid to Japanese Intercepts
Robert Hanyok Dec 27, 2020 11:14 PM (in response to Shannon Kerner)I am still seeking the two-part detailed finding aid for the intercepts (actually decrypts) of messages transmitted between Japanese Naval attachés and Tokyo. I believe is separate work from the online Search in this Series. There should be copies of this finding aid for RG 457, Entry 9013.
