Rare Appearance Coming Jan 26 Gen MacArthur Fades Away
New York AP reports Gen Douglas MacArthur will turn 80 on January 26 and host a grand birthday gathering at Waldorf Towers. The event features a staff reunion, speeches, and a three wine dinner, with Krueger Kenney and Kinkaid delivering branch greetings. The general remains largely out of public sight, runs Sperry Rand board meetings from his apartment, and recalls battles with tempered pride and lingering bitterness over his 1951 dismissal.
