Bonner Frank Fellers (1896 - 1973), during World War II, was a Colonel who served as the USA military attaché to Cairo, Egypt. He was recalled to the United States when it became known that, possibly due to negligence on his part and that of the American consulate, the Italy were intercepting and passing on all British intelligence that he obtained to Colonel-General Erwin Rommel. He was later promoted to Brigadier General and assigned to the Pacific where he served as the Chief of Psychological Operations under General Douglas MacArthur. He was one of the military leaders advocating the utter destruction of Japan as the only way to obtain peace in Asia.
