General Douglas MacArthur famously declared "I shall return" during a speech on March 20, 1942, as he was forced to evacuate the Philippines due to advancing Japanese forces in World War II. He made this statement while addressing the Filipino people, promising to return and liberate them from occupation. His words became a symbol of hope and determination, and he fulfilled that promise when he returned to the Philippines in October 1944.
