	A Douglas MacArthur Story
		MacArthur's position in Filipino heart, right up there alongside their own national heroes such as the martyred Dr. Jose Rizal (who was executed by the Spanish) and Manuel Quezon, does not have merely to do with the victory over Japan in World War II or with the liberation of the Philippines.
		MacArthur admired the Filipino guerrilla's style, their bravery, their ingenuity (as did his son, who was to make dramatic use of Filipino guerrilla operations during the Japanese occupation of the Philippines forty years later).
		MacArthur's first landfall in the retaking of the Philippines was the provincial capital of Tacloban, the typhoon-swept chief port of Leyte province, hometown of a leggy, doe-eyed motherless girl who, twenty years later, was to become the First Lady of the Philippines.
