MacArthur Russia entry debate shadows Yalta report
Defense Department releases an inconclusive report on whether Gen. Douglas MacArthur urged Russia to attack Japan before Yalta. The piece traces his denials, later statements, and the role of the Joint Chiefs of Staff while noting the record’s gaps and political reactions. It also covers related notes about a B'nai B'rith event and other local items.
