So then the question arises - why in the hell does McArthur get so much positive press - on average?
That’s a great question and one that I’ve been curious about since I was a kid. I think El Supremo or the Emperor or McCarthur was very effective at self-promotion and that, coupled of course with the fact that the victors write the story, is why a guy who abandoned his men and vowed to return eventually…when it was “safer”….is or was thought so highly of.
