Answer:

Douglas MacArthur.

Step-by-step explanation:

He was an American General and Field Marshall of the Philippine Army.

After the Japanese defeat in World War II, MacArthur was ordered to exercise authority through the Japanese government machinery. He was responsible for confirming and enforcing the sentences of war crimes. He and his staff helped Japan to rebuild itself, eradicate militarism and ultra-nationalism, promote political civil liberties, and institute a democratic government.

I hope this answer helps you.
