The two navies fought each other fiercely on the seas and in the air during the Pacific War. Each found the other a formidable enemy - they came to respect each other in action. Soon after the war, when the Cold War turned hot, they began to work together as allies. With the assistance of the US Navy, the JMSDF was established as its counterpart. Doing so was in their respective national interests, but many individual officers and sailors on both sides had mixed feelings about working with their former enemies. Over the years, these two navies gradually built strong ties, with respect for and trust in each other. This was made possible by conducting countless joint operations at sea. Leaders of the US Navy began to realize that this small maritime force, its actions being restrained in so many ways by domestic politics as well as constitutional and legal limitations, does its job well, is reliable, and can be fully trusted. The JMSDF realized that, in the Asia/Pacific region, there was no other navy with which it shares common interests and values to be allied with. Close to seventy years of accumulated shared experiences have transformed an initially timid and unbalanced relationship into one of, if not the, most successful navy-to-navy partnership in the world. The maritime alliance between Japan and the United States today is anchored in this history. Numerous admirals, officers, and sailors of the two navies working together have greatly contributed to the stability and prosperity of the Asia/Pacific region for the past seventy years. They are not Nimitzes or Yamamotos, but are nevertheless heroes who toiled hard to bring about this unique friendship across the seas.--adapted from publisher's description. 000889696 546__ $$aIn English with original Japanese title also on colophon. 000889696 61010 $$aJapan.$$bKaijō Jieitai. 000889696 61010 $$aJapan.$$bKaijō Jieitai$$xOfficers. 000889696 61010 $$aUnited States.$$bNavy$$xOfficers. 000889696 7001_ $$aYabuki, Hiraku,$$etranslator. 000889696 830_0 $$aJapan library (Shuppan Bunka Sangyō Shinkō Zaidan) 000889696 85200 $$bgen$$hVA653$$i.A66213$$i2019 000889696 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:889696$$pGLOBAL_SET 000889696 980__ $$aBIB 000889696 980__ $$aBOOK
