Thank you, Douglas MacArthur! You're a true hero, staying true to your word as you landed in the beaches of Palo, Leyte. Our greatest military war hero is an American, isn't that weird?
@@Bugsfuckingbunny Rizal is only a hero because Americans and the Japanese placed him to be one. As America and Japan occupied the Philippines (not the same time ofc) they placed Rizal as the Philippines "main" hero because they wanted the Filipinos to look up at a hero who fought through thought and words. It's easier to suppress the people that way than to have people revolt with guns and swords like Bonifacio would have wanted
Gen. Douglas MacArthur is one of Filipinos greatest and real hero. I will never forget his history with the Philippines and other countries. I hope others won't forget him also.
Then why, after all that American blood for the Filipinos, are American expats not granted a reciprocal green card in the Philippines? Any American should be not only able to retire there, but welcomed and allowed to buy a house. Is that asking too much, to be treated equally both ways after all that blood shed for the Filipino people? Green cards should work both ways, reciprocally. That would be a real "thank you."
@@ComfortsSpecter Green card holders in the U.S. never have to change their citizenship. They are not dual citizens. They remain Chinese, Filipino, Taiwanese, Thai ... whatever .. yet can stay, work and buy a home in the U.S. the rest of their lives.
Unlike most politicians, he kept true to his word. If only Philippine politicians were like this, our country wouldn't be so corrupt jfc just look at it.
Seated behind him is Australia’s great wartime leader John Curtin whos relationship with MacArthur was very close. He cops enormous negative comments from revisionists but without the power of his personality, Australia, the Phillipines, South Korea and even Japan would have been worse off without his determination and leadership. As an Australian i thank him.
Thanks, for that. Glory to all the heroes of liberation. Mr MacArthur, and to this Mr Curtin as well you mention. God Bless them and may they rest in paradise.
Thank You For Saving Our Country I Will Never Forget You McArthur Salute To You And Keeping Your Promise *I SHALL RETURN* We Apreciatte Your Help To Our Country *Salute* Your're A True Hero
I think that the bond between the United States and the Philippines has been a great boon to both of us. I say this especially here in Norfolk (General MacArthur was raised here) & he was one of my boyhood heroes... -- All of my life I have worked with and lived around Filipino immigrants. I have been richer for the experience and also have a permanent taste for their cuisine. I have actually wished to visit for sometime.
If it were a real "thank you" and welcome after all that bloodshed, the Philippines would offer RECIPROCAL green cards for American expats in the Philippines. It would work both ways. Americans could also buy a house, which is prohibited.
I Can´t compare, Cesar was killed for many mistakes, one of this he was against freedom. Macartur was for the freedom and tons of Philipino helped him.
@ajferet his campaign from Australia to the Phillipines to the doorstep of Japan was incredible. Patton lost way more men walking a mile than "Dugout Doug " did under far worse logistical circumstances.
@emmthreejonny That man could have taken on China and hindered their ability to become a Communist super power if the government only let him. One of the greatest Generals to ever be apart of the American Armed Forces.
@@localextremist2839 no. Stalin was rebuilding the ussr and consolidating his gains in Eastern Europe. Mao wanted him to join the fight. Stalin said no.
It did happen after Pearl Harbor...directly after Pearl Harbor. There was no time to retaliate. Pearl Harbor, Guam, and the Philippines were attacked simultaneously. That and the soldiers on the island had grown complacent. There was no time to muster up the forces necessary and he did hold out as long as he could.
I cannot remember where this is from its been a while since I uploaded this but its likely from Archive public domain. If you want to use it go right ahead.
@emmthreejonny I understand your points however he was not judeged harshly, in comparison to the treatment given to Admiral Husband Kimmel, Commander of the Pacific Fleet at Pearl Harbor.
Agreed: Ike was chosen precisely because FDR and Churchill knew he could maintain the military alliance between the U.S. and British forces. None could argue he did a superb job at that. And I do agree that Overlord couldn't have been pulled off without him there. Also, Ike knew the Allies would need Patton in Europe and that's why he fought to make sure he wasn't dismissed. I'll give Ike that much. I still find that he made some poor strategic choices at times. El Alamein was all Monty had.
@emmthreejonny i cant believe it at first but the there were pictures with description at the university with the General in the school wearing academic toga but he was very old at that time when the picture was taken....i guess he was 70+
Filipinos of the Greatest generation hold Macarthur in high regard. OK, he had a blackout. But a few questions: why were rifles he requested for the Philippine Army a searly as 1938 not released by Washington. The Philippines had US $50 million in 1940 dollars deposited in trust. President Quezon of the Commonwealth of the Philippines had repeatedly asked that amount to be able to equip at least one regular Philippine Army Division. The amount came only on the eve of WW2..
Because Philippines was reclaimed, and us Filipinos probably think he's so great and mighty now. It's possible that your statement was true, and I respect your opinion, I'd even want to research that thanks to you.
a Pre Planned move, the idea was to dig in on Corregidor and wait out the Siege that would follow while the US Navy fought its way to the Islands to give support, the problem was Pearl Harbor, not everyone knew the full extent of the losses there. the poor wretched holed up in The Rock were constantly waiting for a relief that would never come, Everything that could have been done was done, the problem is that war is sickly unpredictable.
I love how this same guy tried convincing the then president of the US to launch 38 nukes at Chinese forces moving into korea in the begining of the Korean war.
@elu296 This "American Caesar"'s actions in dealing with President Truman crossed the line that any Commissioned Officer in the Armed Forces of the United States should ever take. Insubordination would be a term that does not even begin to approach the severity of his breach of conduct.
Gen MacArthur has to return to the Philippines because he owns vast of lands in Mindanao and Visayas, he wants to recover his huge coconut, pineapple and sugar plantations...this is why he guaranteed the world that he'll return to the Philippines..this is the truth...only a few trusted people close to the General knew about this !!! Philippines to him is his second home !!!
@ajferet Patton also designed his own uniforms. Great general, as big a prima donna as MacArthur, but Patton got WAY more people killed in his campaigns.
@DunlopDaytona I did get to Ike's and Monty's and Churchill's (as well as several minor figures)... I really enjoyed Manchester's "The Last Lion" about Winnie though. --- I don't think that President Truman was a communist sympathizer, but that there were figures in his administration (inherited from Roosevelt) that were stuck in a socialist mode.
Alfredo Curay MacArthur was outraged when he discovered that we gave the Japanese more aid then you patriots, “Give me ten thousand Filipinos and I shall conquer the world!” Sad that our relations have kinda gone down the drain ever since your new president.
That's not diplomacy, that's called management. CEO's do it all the time: managing everyone under them making sure people do their job, while dealing with bruised egos, differing opinions, and competency. That doesn't require diplomacy, it requires good management skills. And any good manager would have realized, after awhile, that Patton and Bradley could be better trusted with resources, than Monty, who took forever to get anything done. Even the Brits wondered about him at times.
He kept his promise unlike most politicians.

Teddy Roosevelt are you nuts. He was the general of the army, not the Marines
@@bigburd875 lol he is not.

I shall return!

My grandpa served under macArthur. He always talked about him saying ...'i shall return"
This reminds me that we have a test in ww2 the answer is "i shall return" instead my classmate answered "i will be back" 😂😂
FACEPALM
That was The Terminator 😂
Lmao same but on my test my Classmae answered "Douglas McArthur said *"Goodbye"* before leaving the Philippines."
Thank you and God bless
gotta respect the man.

Thank you General MacArthur you will be remembered by filipino people.
Thankyou sir❤
I had an employer who would say on his way to lunch or run errands "as mcarthur said I SHALL RETURN"
I kinda wipe some tears after he fulfilled his promise to the filipinos that I shall return
It's like movie. Salute to General
without you we wouldn't be here right now we thank you
This was in my A. P book for my quiz...
He won 17 or 18 Battles. One of the most Iconic Generals of all time.
He almost didn't return but thankfully, he returned
Good channel! "I shall return" 😊
In memory of Douglas Mcarthur "I Shall return" we sulot you. Many Thanks
Thank you Gen.Mac Arthur for saving our country
It's sad that some so called history experts make fun of this great general.
All these legendary badasses are more soft-spoken than you expect
Your a legend McArthur :(
What a hero. Medal of Honor stuff. He was the greatest soldier in WW2. They called him "American Caesar", but Caesar never won the Medal of Honor.
I Can´t compare, Cesar was killed for many mistakes, one of this he was against freedom. Macartur was for the freedom and tons of Philipino helped him.
Epic quote! :)
Salamat sa pag ligtas samin sa gera
And he made history.
This happened before Midway. Allied victory was uncertain but MacArthur had faith.
Thank you general to save my country
thanks
A legend never goes back to his words
Great general after ww11 america had the world should of taken the lot another missed opportunity .Greatest military mind of all time.
uhm..thank you very much for uploading it. I hope you don't mind if we use this video for our roleplay in school.. Thank you very much.. :)
Apparently he made this famous speech March 19 or 20, 1942. My father, Douglass Macaurthur Patterson, had just been born March 5.
In ancient times he would've been made a king.
salute
In today’s slang he would have just said I’ll be back.
Then, that will be Arnold
Thanks dauglaus machautur
that's a history lesson right there, just reading the comments between you two. ;) both of you have good points.
I salute you general dauglas mcartur
I shall return
I would have voted for him as the President of the Philippines.
