The Korean War Series Project!

I don't know much about Almond, but I at least give MacArthur credit for the capacity to learn. His performance and failure from the Philippines seems to have been taken to heart when it came to later plans. That said, I was never much impressed with his peer-to-peer arrogance and I think his inferiority complex sometimes clouded his outlook. He did understand the operational situation better than Bradley, who was head of the Joint Chiefs at the time.
