The United States military had been so completely gutted by the peace ostriches between the wars that they couldn't have rescued a troop of Girl Scouts stuck in a city park picnic ground, much less fight through and relieve an entire army thousands of miles away.

MacArthur should have been relieved of his command and court-martialed for his negligence. Instead, Dugout Doug got the Medal of Honor while tens of thousand of troops under his command got three years of hell on earth.
