On Dec. 8th. 1941, while the fires at Pearl Harbor were still raging and the Japanese were laying waste to every military installation all over the Philippines, "Dugout Doug'' Mac Arthur was on the phone most of the whole day talking to his brokers in New York.

Surely you say that as some sort of sarcasm, or joke?

It wasn’t his fault that the aArmy Air Corp had one air patrol and isntead of haveing a combat air patrol decided to bomb Formosa. The 5th Interceptor Command and 24th Pursuit Group were were beyond incompetent. Any high ranking officers who survived the camps should have been shot for dereliction of duty.
