Most occupation forces are hated, but, General MacArthur's unusual empathy and fairness towards the Japanese was notable. His occupation administration reformed the ancient corrupt feudal system with a modern democracy. His legacy was applauded which was confirmed by the Emperor's personal farewell.
Remarkable footage. Modern Japan, a wonderful nation, is in significant part a result of the work of MacArthur's enlightened administration. Whatever his faults and failures, he is one of last century's greatest military leaders.
@@pmccoy8924 The greatest honor you can give an enemy upon their defeat is to let them maintain their dignity. He arrived in Japan as a Conqueror but left as a friend. Allowing the Japanese people to maintain their dignity.
USA lost the race war obviously.. USA had to make reparation to Germany and Japan... USA got all the bills and lost it war dept.. Japan won at treaty... USA has good TV programming now made in Japan... fight harder next time.. sweety
He left a lasting impression on the early postwar generation of Japanese. Years later, they still rated him as "the best general" the US ever had -- whether historians agree with that or not.
@@johnrobinson4445 Marshall was a REMF who never served a single second in combat like MacArthur and never traveled to the front lines like MacArthur did numerous times.
You need everyone, MacArthur, Marshall, FDR, Truman, Patton, Ike, The 5 Admirals, the Air Chiefs, the guys in the Frontline trenches, people at home making the arsenal of democracy.
İlk defa daha bir Türk ile karşılaştım. Her neyse, Hirohito'yu akladılar ve onun itibarını kendilerine bağımlı bir ülke haline getirmek için kullandılar.
Маккартур проиграл японцам на Филлипинах и сбежал, бросив свои войска на верную смерть) Маккартур проиграл в Корее, после чего начал грозить сбросить ядерные бомбы на Корею и Китай) Трумэн дал ему пинка под зад.. "Великий военачальник" 😂😂😂
You mean the Philippines that the United States won in a War against Spain and decided it should be given back to the People for self determination? The only reason the Philippines is an Independent Sovereign Nation today is because of the United States.

He loved by all the Japanese and the Emperor. He seen as the victor without oppresion.
Astonishing that 6 years prior they were mortal enemies that saw each other as unhuman monsters.

Americans need a modern McArthur. The man wasn't perfect but got the job done. 👏🙏🇺🇸👍🏆
Pretty sure Marshall had something to do with it, too.

The big and honourable general
Interesting historical footage.
Damn only one comment?
Ikr
Sad
Thank you for your service Sir
Almost ? Not almost ...he was n is a legend ...
Macarthur was a true hero and legend. Should've listened to him in Korea and the country would be unified and free now.
The Big General.
Not almost legendary,, he was the legend n is today ...
U.S. is a different country today and unfortunately I can’t say it’s better than then because it’s not. It’s a much worse country.

😅Many AMERICAN TROOPS THOUGT HE WAS AN EGOTISTICAL CRAVING ATTENTION ĢETTER.. WISHING TO KNOW IF THAT IS TRUE
That is given if you have reached that status.
How weird. A military general as if he were some Caeaser type emperor. How much gold was pulled out of the Philippines by MacArthur & Co.?
