Summary edit

Description 26-G-3555_Box 70_1: Invasion of Leyte, Philippines, 20 October 1944. MacArthur keeps his pledge. This remarkable study of General MacArthur, nonchalantly puffing on his corncob pipe, was made by a Coast Guard Combat Photographer at the historic moment when MacArthur surveyed the Leyte Island beachhead and saw his famous “I Will Return” pledge fulfilled. MacArthur is conferring with Sergio Oswena, (right), President of the Philippines. U.S. Coast Guard photograph, now in the collections of the National Archives. (2015/12/15).
