'''The general of the United States Army at the time-- Douglas MacArthur-- was given supreme authority over Japan. '''

Copied from Americans in Japan: In addition to registered foreign residents, a significant number of American military personnel, civilian workers, and their dependents live in Japan due to the presence of the United States military in Japan under the U.S.–Japan Security Treaty. Approximately 70% of American military personnel in Japan are stationed in Okinawa Prefecture.

'''Edit: Another subcategory of Americans residing in Japan are Japanese Americans, referring to those with American citizenship and birthright but Japanese heritage. They are, in the Japanese language, known as Nisei-- referring to a second generation of those with Japanese heritage living in America. '''
