An incredible story about an incredible leader! AFR is pleased to be a supporter of this great Foundation!
MARCH 11, 1942: MacArthur and his family escape Corregidor aboard PT-41. He later recalled of that moment: "On the dock I could see the men staring at me. I had lost 25 pounds living on the same diet as the soldiers, and I must have looked gaunt and ghastly standing there in my old war stained clothes -no bemedaled commander of inspiring presence...I heard someone ask, 'What's his chance, Sarge, of getting through?' and the gruff reply, "Dunno. He's lucky. Maybe one in five.'"
Six days later he and his family reached the safety of Australia.
