The fight for the freedom of the Philippines from Japanese invasion. The American evacuation of the Philippines was the result of Japan's aggression in East Asia. General MacArthur would keep his promise and did return. Before this happened there was a top secret meeting between President Roosevelt, MacArthur, and Admiral Nimitz. MacArthur talked the president to retake the Philippines instead of attacking Formosa.
He promised to return to The Philippines .

It cannot be proven that the quote came from Plato. It was attributed to him by General Douglas MacArthur, but there is no evidence to back it up in any of Plato's work.
Could've been GEN MacArthur with his WWII win win attitude. And it could've been Pres Truman replying back with his, "...this is the wrong war, with the wrong people, at the wrong time..." and Mac was relieved of command (fired in civilian terms).

There is a belief among many MacArthurs that they are all related in some way -- it's a small clan.That being said, there is no current evidence showing a relationship between General Douglas MacArthur, and the playwright Charles Gordon MacArthur. You can get back to Scotland independently with both families.
General Douglas MacArthur made the famous statement, "I shall return", as a promise to the Philippine people that he would be back to retake the Islands after being overpowered by the Japanese in 1941. He made good on this promise by assembling a huge force from his base in Australia, then coming back to completely destroy the Japanese forces in 1944-1945. This pretty much marked the beginning of the end of the Second World War in the Pacific.

Douglas MacArthur was born on January 26, 1880

The original Purple Heart goes back to the American Revolution when General George Washington personally awarded it to only three soldiers. After the war, the medal disappeared until 1932, when Army Chief of Staff General Douglas MacArthur resurrected it, retroactive to WWI.
