Demilitarization in Japan-

MacArthur was determined to be fair and not to plant the seeds for a future war. Nevertheless, to ensure that fighting would end, he began a process of demilitarization : disbanding the Japanese armed forces. He achieved this quickly, leaving the Japanese with only a small police force.

What did Douglas MacArthur have to do with Japan's history?

MacArthur led the Allies to victory over Japan. He was humble to the Emperor Hirohito as the Emperor yielded the control of his country to him. MacArthur respected the rights and culture of the Japanese as he helped them to learn how to have a democratic government. He left Japan for a time to lead in Korea. They gave Japan their own control after seven years. The Japanese helped MacArthur with the servicemen serving in Korea. They allowed them to take furlough in their country. So MacArthur earned the respect of the Japanese and helped them to recover after the War.
