What island did Truman want to go to?
This question is pretty broad, given the requirement that one get into Truman's mind to determine what island he wanted to visit. During his lifetime, Truman visited several islands, including Hawaii and Britain. Likely, however, the question relates to Truman's October 11-18, 1950, trip to Wake Island in the Pacific Ocean to meet with General Douglas MacArthur, who was then in command of United Nations forces in Korea. Truman made the trip--much longer than MacArthur had to come from Korea--in order to meet face to face with MacArthur and obtain his assessment of the situation in Korea. Much has been made of the meeting--with speculation that MacArthur intended to force Truman's airplane to land first so that Truman would have to wait on MacArthur, not the other way around, and MacArthur's act of shaking the president's hand rather than saluting him when Truman came off his plane. Another island that Truman wanted to visit, and did visit several times during and after his presidency, was Key West, Florida. He stayed at the command headquarters at the Key West naval station, which became known as the Little White House. The building is now a museum. Altogether Truman made 11 trips to Key West during his presidency.
What general replaced MacArthur?
MacArthur was not in the United States from 1935, when he went to the Philippines, until fired by Truman in 1951, except for one wartime visit to Hawaii to meet with President Roosevelt. Hawaii was at that time a US Territory, not a state.MacArthur was SCAP - Supreme Commander Allied Powers, in Tokyo, from 1945 until he was fired in 1951. Korea fell under his supervision, and his command there included the US 8th Army and the X Corps, but MacArthur was most of the time in Tokyo.He was succeeded as SCAP by Matthew Ridgeway.
