I have a draft of a letter, written in the 1950s by my wife’s paternal grandfather, bitching at President Truman for relieving MacArthur in Korea.
Her grandfather was actually a Spanish-American War vet, believe it or not; ran away from home and joined the Navy at 15 years old (obviously lied about his age) and was at Manila with Dewey’s fleet. We have mail with letterhead that reads “Spanish American War Veterans Association” on it.
He takes Truman to task for relieving MacArthur and “placating all the leftover communists from FDR in your administration”.
There are many cross-outs and re-writes, but it’s clear he was pretty passionate about it.
Funny... they had the same idiots to deal with in the Democrat party then as we do now; except now, the democrats are completely communist, as opposed to just having some within their midst.
While I could never watch it, I never got the humor, its amazing how anti-Korean war TV comedy MASH became so popular.
Its replayed on ME-TV now. In the 1980s re-runs of it saturated the airwaves.
My father and his brother seemed to like it(both enlisted in WWII) , personally I prefer Hogan’s Heroes by far.
