MacArthur the Egomanic,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Macarthur (DVD)
I thought this was a very good documentary, that showed all of the ups and downs of General MacArthur's career. I got the impression that MacArthur was really full of himself and I was amazed when it was mentioned that General MacArthur came very close to getting court martialled due to his actions in the Phillipines from Dec 1941 to the Fall of the Phillipines. Apparently in the 1930's he was offered the rank of Field Marshall in the Phillipine Army and he actually thought about taking it, due to his ego!! Most people also aren't aware that Eisenhower was MacArthur's aide in the Phillipines in the 1930's and Eisenhower was belittled by MacArthur, who called him the "the Best Clerk in the whole US Army". I would also be interested to hear what happened to MacArthur's son who shunned a miltary career, in favor of the theatre??
