Description
Letter from Undersecretary of the Navy James Forrestal to Assistant Secretary of War John J. McCloy regarding Navy Commander Melvin McCoy, who was quoted by the United Press as having made disparaging remarks about Japanese American soldiers, such as that they excel at killing Germans because they like killing white men. Forrestal indicates that McCoy has been unofficially reprimanded for his words.
