Army.ca's Fallen Comrades

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old



The President of the United States ordered me to break through the Japanese lines and proceed from Corregidor to Australia for the purpose, as I understand it, of organizing the American offensive against Japan, a primary objective of which is the relief of the Philippines. I came through and I shall return.

- Gen Douglas MacArthur
