My grandfather was on Bataan, then shipped to Corregidor right before Bataan fell. Then he was shipped to Guadalcanal right before Corregidor fell.

He was assigned to MacArthur's command and because for that, was shipped out before it got ugly.
Once MacArthur was put in charge of the heavens and earth, my grandfather's crew went right into the middle of it.
He was one of the guys who patched up Henderson field (under fire) every day.

Patton would have kicked the **** out of MacArthur.
Montgomery and MacArthur would have fought to a pitiful draw with lots of scratching, hair-pulling and tears.
