MacArthur had his own personal PR machine working overtime for him. Many felt he served his own ego and not his country or his troops. His management of Korea was an outright debacle.

Actually Mac turned the Korean war around, Ichon? Truman was the fool not MacAuthor. Putting the 7th fleet between Formosa and China, basically securing the enemy’s flank, freed up all those Chinese troops to enter Korea. Truman’s screw up not MacAuthor’s.
