One is the Captain's report to the Navy on the overall trip, highlighting accomplishments and problems.

The other(s) are more detailed, filled with minutiae, and may include:

Quartermaster's Notebook - All maneuvering commands, weapon use, daily position calculations (may be in a Navigator's Log),

Engineering Log - Status and operation of all mechanical equipment,

Radio Log - All transmitted, and received messages, plus listening watch notes,

Torpedo Expenditure Log - serial numbers, last serviced, settings, and fate, and

Sonar Log -

and so on.

Hope this helps, the KTB was the formal Patrol Report, the other logs had the day to day (or moment to moment) detail.
