JAPAN AND AMERICA, c1930-1955
THE PACIFIC WAR AND THE OCCUPATION OF JAPAN
Series One: The Papers of General Robert L Eichelberger (1886-1961) from the William R Perkins Library, Duke University

Part 2: Subject Files on Japan and Diaries (Boxes 54-65 and Boxes 1-4)

Part 2 covers material on events in Japan, providing monthly non-military summaries, files on the political reorganization of Japan 1947-1949, public health and welfare reports, 1945-1949, industrial reparations and Eisenhower's inspection of Kobe Base in May 1946. There are also files on the Sorge spy reports and material on Korea.

We also include all of Eichelberger's diaries for 1940-1951 which are very detailed and contain substantial daily entries. These provide vivid insights into military operations during the War in the Pacific followed by a valuable record of Eichelberger’s work during the Occupation period with careful observations on all aspects of the post-war situation.
