MacArthur’s Return to the Philippines at 80 Years

Subscribe to The American IdeaSubscribe

It's been 80 years since Allied forces under General Douglas MacArthur invaded and, eventually, liberated the Philippines. To discuss the pivotal event in WW2 and world history, Jeff is joined by historian Walter Borneman, author of several books on World War II, including the excellent MacArthur at War. Learn about how this invasion came about and how, in many ways, it reflected the complex character of MacArthur himself.
