People argue against the nukes, but having grandparents who fought in WW2, i probably wouldn't be here if there was a mainland invasion.

You scared the poop out of me!! I thought you had gotten a new narrator for a moment, until I heard that warm voice I've grown to love! You've got such a knack for narrating these videos. Please, don't go anywhere!!! Okay, I'm better now đ

This is all good stuff, but you did not mention the huge contribution made by Dr. W. Edwards Deming on introducing quality processes to Japanese industry. He helped them go from an importing nation to an exporting one that turned out some of the greatest quality products still to this day. The highest award for quality in the world is awarded each year in Japan. It is called the Deming Prize.

I had two great uncles who served in the US occupation of Japan right after World War II before they both got sent to Korea to fight.

I donât think MacArthur âstepped downâ. I believe he was removed from command.
@barcharlie
Remember that kid you fought in school but he became one of your best friends? Americans really like that kind of friend and mutual respect of strength.
@johnjones5354
I reject your statement that the US was "responsible for the devastation of Japan". The damage to Japan was 100 % the result of the actions of Japan.
@SamBroadway
LOL rewriting history seems to be very common... MacArthur never stepped down... Truman fired him!

It must have been morale crushing to the people when they realized their emperor was no divine being nor a god but just a merr human being

Morbid fact, no new Purple Hearts have been Minted since 1945. Meaning all the Purple Hearts that have been given out to this day were Minted for the Invasion of Japan.

Its not all roses in japan. Theyâre dieing. Decades of stagnant economic conditions has left the population unwilling to have children, depressed, and suicidal. Their justice system is also brutal im general, even with minor offenses.
