Original Note:
While Nimitz didn't threaten any discipline in his 15 Aug '45 directive, he did write: "[...] the use of insulting epithets in connection with the Japanese as a race or as individuals does not now become the officers of the United States Navy." See his Graybook, 7:3352 (pg 107) https://www.ibiblio.org/anrs/docs/D/D7/nimitz_graybook7.pdf
