We remember General Douglas McArthur, who was born on this day in Little Rock, Arkansas, in 1880.
He graduated from West Point in 1903 and went on to serve in World War I. In World War II, McArthur was the commander of Allied forces in the Pacific. In 1951, President Truman dismissed him for differences over the Korean War. The general died in 1964.
