Mac never did much for anyone but Mac.
He was a good general who thought he was an emperor.
He considered Ike a good clerk. That kind of sums up his arrogance.
You left out the time he led the troops against the bonus camps. That was cool.
In summer of 1944 there was a War Strategy meeting in Hawaii with Roosevelt, Nimitz, Leahy and MacArthur. MacArthur was late to the meeting and improperly dressed. Admiral Leahy, who was is Superior Officer as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs and Roosevelts Military Adviser, unbraided MacArthur for being late and out of uniform. And to add insult to injury referred to him by his first name, Douglas, everyone else other than Roosevelt, called him General and he insisted upon that, even his wife called him the General. He got MacArthur’s attention real quick and Mac started making excuses and Leahy was not having it.
