Nimitz idea was "Kill Japs, Kill More Japs." Those were his words not mine. That is exactly how he felt about the war. He was a victor over the Japanese military and he had more victorious attacks, missions and operations than any other person in the Pacific War of World War 2. I must admit I am proud of him and we even have a boulevard named after him in my Navy hometown of San Diego, California.

The combined Allied Joint Chiefs split the Pacific Theater into two major operational areas: the Southwest Pacific Area, and the Pacific Ocean Area, each of which had a Supreme commander, which reported to the Combined Joint Chiefs.General Douglas MacArthur was the supreme commander for the SWPA. Most major land invasions and defenses fell under his command, however.Admiral Chester W Nimitz was supreme commander for the POA. All major naval operations in both theaters fell under his command, however.Frankly, this was a political compromise, and was sub-optimal as the two commands ofen competed for resources and priorities.Adm.
