Re: Gen. MacARTHUR
In terms of sheer intelligence he was. IIRC, He had/has the 2nd highest graduating score of any West Pointer, Robert E Lee was 3rd. An "unknown" from around 1880 had the highest. IDK , why the guy is unknown.colt45 wrote:he didn't have much naval help, used A.A.Force planes, F.D.R. didn't like him or Truman... he set up Japans Govt. after the war..Bataan surrendered April 9, 1942...

Also this is a very old recollection, no idea what source or what context, And this info could easily be in error or off in rankings now.
