Nimifz' Speech
At Capitulation
Aboard USS Missouri, Tokyo
Bay, Sept. 4 W.P Following is
the official text of remarks made
by Fleet Admiral Chester V. Ni
mitz at the surrender of Japan
Sunday:
On board all naval vessels at
sea and in port, and at our many
island bases in the Pacific, there
is rejoicing and thanksgiving.
The long and bitter struggle
which Japan started so treach
erously on the seventh of De
cember 1941 is at an end.
I take great pride in the Am
erican forces which have helped
to win this victory. America can
be proud of them. The officers
and men of the United States
army, navy, marine corps, coast
guard and merchant marine who
fought in the Pacific have writ
ten heroic new chapters in this
nation's military history. I have
infinite respect for their cour
age, resourcefulness, and devo
tion to duty. We also acknowl
edge the great contribution to
this victory made by our valiant
allies. United we fought and un
ited we prevail.
The port of Tokyo which was
first opened by Commodore Per
ry in 1853 is now crowded with
United States men o'war. The
process of bringing Japan into
the family of civilized nations,
which was interrupted, when Ja
pan launched her program of
conquest, will soon begin again.
Today all freedom-loving peo
ples of the world rejoice in the
victory and feel pride in the
accomplishments of our combin
ed forces. We aiso pay the trib
ute to those who defended our
freedom at the cost of their
lives.
Now we turn to the great
tasks of reconstruction and res
toration. I am confident that
we will be able to apply the
same skill, resourcefulness and
keen thinking to these problems
as were applied to the problems
of winning the victory.
