Thanks for reminding us about the times when secrets could be kept without fear because the news industry understood national security SPC Britanny *Winnie* Balthaser
Douglas MacArthur was considered to be a serious presidential contender by many before Dwight D. Eisenhower got the nod.
MacArthur was a true hero who dedicated his life to this nation. He shaped post-war diplomacy with Japan and helped to turn our implacable enemy into one of our staunchest allies.
He understood the complicity of China and the USSR to a lesser degree in the Korean conflict. He also understood absolute war and unconditional surrender while brutal are the only combination to end a war. In the Cold War courage of conviction was not as common as in WWII.

That was one of many incidents that put this old world on the very edge of total destruction. I am constantly amazed that the world survived the Cold War.
