Bonner Fellers struck up a close friendship with the family. Fellers had been a student of Lafcadio Hearn's writings, and in 1934-35, after being very impressed with Hearn's insights about the Japanese character, wrote a monograph:" THE PSYCHOLOGY OF THE JAPANESE SOLDIER, based in large on Hearn's writings. Eventually this essay was read by MacArthur who was greatly impressed with Feller's expertise on Japan. . At the end of World War II with the defeat of Japan Maj. Gen Fellers arrived in Japan with MacArthur's staff. Fellers was immediately appointed guardian to Emperor Hirohito. and went to work to protect Hirohito from the role he had played during and at the end of the war. Fellers's overriding goals were to confirm the effectiveness of his own wartime propaganda program, and, at the same time, to shield Hirohito from standing at the war crimes tribunal. . Fellers was considered the most reliable Japan expert and the single-most influential person on MacArthur's staff concerning the Emperor. Fellers was MacArthur's military advisor. . For his remarkable contribution to the early end of the war and influencing Emperor Hirohito into subduing the Japanese population for American occupation, he received the Army's Distinguished Service Medal [DSO]. . Immediately after the war, Fellers brought food and vital supplies to the deprived and starving Koizumi family.
