No, General MacArthur fought in World War I, World War II, and the Korean War. In 1951, President Harry Truman discharged MacArthur for disrespecting him (Truman) and other superiors in charge of the Korean conflict.

General Douglas MacArthur argued that the Korean War was?

General Douglas MacArthur argued that the Korean War was a crucial conflict in the fight against communism, asserting it was essential to prevent the spread of Soviet influence in Asia. He believed that a decisive military victory could lead to the liberation of North Korea and potentially other communist nations. Additionally, MacArthur advocated for a more aggressive strategy, including the possibility of extending the war into China, which ultimately led to his dismissal by President Truman.


Who was General Douglas Mac Arthur?

MacArthur led the allied forces in the South Pacific theater of WWII. He originally led the defense of the Philippines, but was ordered to evacuate to Australia to lead the fight from there. It is from Australia that he promised the people of the Philippines, "I shall return." Three years later, at the head of the US Army, he did.


When did General Douglas MacArthur promise to come back?

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.


What US army generals have been relieved of duty-history?

General George McClellan during the Civil War, General Douglas MacArthur during the Korean War, and now, General McChrystal. McClellan was an arrogant, but brilliant general, replaced by the drunken idiot Ulysses S. Grant. MacArthur led the fight to defeat the Japanese in World War II. McChrystal is a supremely intelligent, extremely skilled warrior who had the misfortune and, perhaps, bad judgement, to speak his mind in front of a reporter from Rolling Stone. Whether he was right or wrong is not under debate. In our free country, you're not allowed to think the President is a dunce.
