Douglas MacArthur
He was born in 1880. He had two
wives and he had one kid. He was a military man at heart. MacArthur was the
Head general of the Korean War. He was the mastermind of the Incheon invasion.
Was is considered one of the great feats of his military legacy. He put the U.S
back on the map with Korean war but he might’ve pushed a little too far. He
eventually pushed the North Koreans back into china and he thought that the
Chinese would provide little resistance and that use of nuclear weapons would
make taking china a walk In the park.
Harry
Truman
He
was born in 1884 in Missouri. He had married Bess Wallace and had Margaret
Truman as a daughter. Truman was a supporter of the Korean War since the very
beginning. He wanted to blockade Koreas initially with navy but due to a lack
of funds they were unable to do that. So Truman called on the newly established
U.N to help the weak South Korea out. They did end up helping and even put U.S
general Macarthur in Charge of the war efforts. Truman didn’t official call it
a war for the longest time because of fears it would haunt him he called it a
police state and then he later on fired MacArthur because he was worried that
it could potentially cause world war 3
