How did the firing of Doug MacArthur do to the world?

Douglas MacArthur was relieved of commanding in Korea, he was not necessarily fired but he did choose to retire eventually. It did allow the morale of the military in Korea to rise some when a new commander was put into place. The soldiers did not want to be there and wanted to go home and were not well trained or experienced. The people in the USA had begun to want their people out of Korea. McArthur's departure from Korea did not affect the world as much as it did the soldiers in Korea and the Korean people.
