You may want to check out the log of the 4th War Patrol of
the USS Gunnel (SS-253) at http://members.aol.com/jmlavelle2/patrol4.htm

"...Two days earlier a radio message received "Exclusively for the
commanding
officer" directed Gunnel to rendezvous in this vicinity at sunset two miles
offshore with a sailing banca (canoe). The boat was manned by a Filipino
guerilla unit, which needed a part for their American-made radio gear.
Guerilla units and coast watchers were providing important highly important
intelligence information to American forces..."
