Excellent article. Never liked Ike, to much of a slimy politician. MacArthur and Patton were Heroes.

I've had this Alternate History Idea for a while where MacArthur makes a deal with Emperor Hirohito and becomes the American Shogun of a new American-Japanese Shogunate. Synthesizing American industrial/military might and traditional Japanese culture. I think it could've been gloriously based.
