Copying my comments from Reddit: I'm actually surprised that the NHHC contact didn't catch this bit of info. From the list of USN abbreviations used during WWII from the NHHC website: "EV -- Escort Vessels (enemy)". Since kaibokans were escort vessels operated by the USN's enemy at the time, wouldn't EV a) make the most sense and b) be an actual acronym used at the time and therefore not something Kancolle players have to invent?
