MacArthur was not generally respected.

If you mean by the navy and the left, I would agree.

When fleeing the Phillipines, MacArthur loaded his personal furniture on military transports and left behind Army nurses, who were later captured by the Japanese.

This story is from one of our neighbors when I was a child in the 1950s. He was a former Army officer who survived those terrible years during WWII in the Phillipines. Everytime he mentioned MacArthur’s name, he would spit afterwards.
