In the 1950s, General Douglas MacArthur was a key figure in the Korean War, which began in June 1950 when North Korea invaded South Korea. As the commander of United Nations forces, he orchestrated a successful amphibious landing at Inchon in September 1950, which turned the tide in favor of South Korea. However, after advancing into North Korea, he faced challenges, including the entry of China into the war, leading to a stalemate. MacArthur was ultimately relieved of his command by President Harry S. Truman in April 1951 due to disagreements over war strategy and policy.
