I am promoted to (1931), a captain in 1931 and take a mine school advanced course student. The line officer finished officer education in the advanced course of the technical school if usual, but Kusaka advanced to the diving school second that was a submarine mine long training course [5] through "Italy 57" chief navigator. It is placement that the submarine mine head assists the diving captain as a senior officer and commands submarine voyage work [5]. "Italy 24" successively held the mine head by three warships of "Italy 2" "Italy 68", and Kusaka assisted Shinji Uchino. Kusaka promoted to a major (1939) in March in 1939 is appointed the "Italy 121" diving captain which is a mining submarine, and subsequently it is a diving school first grade student. This course trains the diving captain and almost wears learning, the ability that are necessary as the tactics, a voyage, [5], the diving captain including the weapon in a period of a half year.

The diving captain of the sister ship had Yasuo Fujimori in charge of Operation submarine in the Naval General Staff [6]. I watched Howland Island with sister ship on the occasion of Pearl Harbor attack. This island was staging base when US Navy went from Hawaii into the South Pacific [7]. I turn to the "Italy 174" diving captain of the third diving squadron (三輪茂義司令官) eleventh diving corps position (1942) in March in 1942.

Captain Italy 174 diving

I made a sortie south on April 15, but the Tokyo area receives bombing on 18th, and Kusaka is ordered the pursuit of the U.S. carrier. The Japanese Navy submarine corps was not able to discover an enemy corps, but Kusaka discovered "the first rock hand lantern". "The first rock hand lantern" was discovered in the U.S. military unit by one ship of the placed monitoring boat corps for the enemy corps who planned an approach in Japan and suffered damage by machine-gun mopping-up. I save a crew and send Kusaka to "Kiso" [7]. Patrol deployment wanted to have the third diving squadron until 27th, and [8] suffered from the Commander Miwa Kawano 10 million castle and a change because of a disease [9]. I participated in the Battle of Midway, and the third diving squadron repeated the change of the cordon during sea fight, but "Italy 168" (Captain Yahachi Tanabe) about the independent duty attacked and sank "Yorktown". Next "Italy 174" returns to Kure according to enemy reinforcement block in the south in [10], November [11].

Captain Italy 180 diving

On December 1, I am appointed the "Italy 180" equipment officer head of the Araumi large size and take office as the first captain after the completion. "Italy 180" is admitted into the 22nd diving corps of the third diving squadron (Commander Katsumi Komazawa) position [12] and follows the traffic destruction round (1943) at the Australia east coast from April in 1943. There is Kusaka between Sydney, Brisbane with "Italy 180" and attacks and sinks two ships (4,376t in total) and overthrows two (7,013t) and saves 21 crews of "the divine power" attacked and sunk by Colombin Gullah island offing sea fight again [7]. Succeeded in transportation to ラエ in the submarine transportation on August 4 [7]; [13].

Captain Italy 26 diving

Having taken up the post formerly captain Minoru Yokota of "Italy 26." Yokota is converted to Christianity after the war, too.

In September, I become the "Italy 26" diving captain. "Italy 26" is the distinguished military service warship which gave military gains such as the "Saratoga" falling of a thunderbolt, the "Juneau" sinking [7]. The warship becomes the admission in the eighth diving squadron (Commander Ichioka Kotobuki)) and engages in the Indian Ocean, a traffic destruction war in the Arabian Sea. Kusaka attacked and sank "Albert Galant Japanese spaniel" (7,176t) at "tones" (8,054t) by the strategy in the Indian Ocean area (1944) on January 1 each overthrowing, 1944 on "Robert T hawk" (7,176t), December 31 on October 28 [7]. Then, I moved to a strategy in the Arabian Sea and included military gains of the overthrowing at "Glenat" (8,117t) (7,176t) "Richard ホベイ" on each sinking, March 29 on "Collier" (8,298t), March 21 on March 13 [7]. In addition, I engage in a strategy to let an agent infiltrate in the India country [14]. This agent was aimed for the India independence by the person from India which a light organization trained, inside work [15] and was carried out for three times, and I hit it, and "Italy 26" of Kusaka was in charge of twice. I let Kusaka comes close near the land of India, and 18 agents infiltrate. Staff Officer predecessor of the eighth diving squadron, Shojiro Iura nominates the ability of Kusaka for a reason of the success [15].

Kusaka who returned to Kure in May was ordered transportation to Saipan. The Japanese Navy which lost a carrier force by Mariana Islands offing sea fight planned the force reinforcement of Mariana Islands, and "Italy 26" left for Saipan. However, I am going on a voyage, and the destination is changed to Guam and succeeds in the transportation of the arsenal to July 9 [16]. Four submarines engaged in this transportation operation, but it is "Italy 26" of Kusaka to have succeeded [7]. "Italy 26" was ordered the crew accommodation from the Tinian island more, but there was already the island for the close siege of the alliance national military and was not able to accommodate it. Kusaka criticizes the navy upper echelon about the order at the point in time that this Saipan fall, Tinian are just before the fall [7].

Captain Italy 400 diving

"Italy 400" crew. As for Kusaka, a lot of inexperienced people of the submarine repeated a basic trainning [17].

Kusaka does 退艦 in August and is appointed the "Italy 400" submarine equipment officer head. Cruising power [18] that could make a round trip from Japan to every points of the world was equipped with water air raider "haze" three again without refueling it in big warship [* 1] where it was the same level as a light cruiser of reserve displacement 5,223t, and "Italy 400" had aerial reconnaissance ability. There were twists and turns over the building of this warship, but I constituted "Italy 14" and a first diving corps [19], and training was carried out with Riyunosuke Ariizumi commander other than same model warship "Italy 401" (Captain Nobukiyo Nanbu) "Italy 13". The first diving corps was changed in the task force where Okinawa round began, and [20] did the target in the Woolsey atoll in a living-in-night intended that suicide attack によって destroyed Panama Canal with ten haze. As for August 17 [21], the strategy name, storm operation, the strategy corps named a submarine corps, an aviation corps generally (1945) in 1945 on scheduled enforcement date of this strategy and were named Ryu God special attack unit [22]. Kusaka made a sortie against [* 2] in large Minato on July 23 and went to the Woolsey atoll.

"Italy 13" had just made a sortie by this military manoeuvre and has not been heard of, and Mrs. newly-married senior officer commits suicide [23]. While "Italy 400" arrived at it near Woolsey atoll on August 14 and planned assembly with "Italy 401", I received the telegram which meant the Potsdam Declaration acceptance of Japan. Kusaka accepts advice of the mine head and tells a subordinate about war end. The "Italy 400" crew faced reality called the defeat of Japan in front of suicide attack を, but the later action was serenity [24]. Kusaka carried out a radio blockade and I took the detour route and started on the return. It was choice of Kusaka that the possibility that this route was struck considered. Kusaka bore tears when I was captured by the US Navy corps, and a naval ensign was replaced to the Star-Spangled Banner [25].

Postwar

I was accused of a BC grade war crime about the allied powers sailor killing case by the submarine corps in the Indian Ocean area and was sentenced to hard labor five years [26]. An arrest, prosecution [27] were considered to be it, and, by this case, a person concerned with navy, Teruhisa Komatsu, Hisashi Mito, Ichioka Kotobuki, Shojiro Iura, the diving captain who obeyed a traffic destruction war in the Indian Ocean contributed to the war crime prosecution of combined fleet commander in chief Soemu Toyoda [28]. [26][* 3] where Kusaka speaks own purity about this matter saying "a piece of guilty place is few innocence." Kusaka was converted to Christianity behind bars [26], and the "Italy 400" crew continued associating for a long time after the war around Kusaka. Kusaka was a man of integrity, and I was loved by a subordinate [29].
