I think I would trust General Marshall before I would trust Hopkins.
Trust Marshall before Hopkins. Marshall was a Hopkins(communist agent) appointee, jumping over many senior officers to his position.
You should read up on George C. Marshall's post war machinations in China. He screwed over Chiang Kai-Shek and practically handed the country to Mao Tse-tung. After Hirohito surrendered to the allied Forces, Marshall diverted all allied ordnance remaining in theater to Mao thus arming the Communists while denying aid to Chiang's Nationalists who were forced to withdraw to Taiwan.
He is responsible for creating a mess we're still living with, not to mention the deaths of millions of Chinese peasants. Between Mao and Stalin they made Hitler look like a rank amature death merchant.
