Douglas MacArthur's quote "old soldiers never die; they just fade away" suggests that while veterans may leave active service and the spotlight, their contributions and memories endure. It reflects the idea that the experiences and sacrifices of soldiers remain a lasting part of history, even as they grow older and less visible in society. The phrase embodies a sense of respect for the enduring legacy and quiet dignity of those who have served in the military.

Who said before a joint sessions of Congress old stories never die they just fade away?

No one. The actual quote, "Old soldiers never die; they just fade away" was part of General Douglas MacArthur's address to a joint session of Congress on April 19, 1951, after President Truman fired him for ignoring orders about threatening China. The sentimental quote belies the seriousness of MacArthur's warning about and insight into the dangers of post-World War II Asia, particularly the Korean War and eventual "military action" in Vietnam.
