I am concerned for the security of our great Nation not so much because of any threat from without, but because of the insidious forces working from within. – Douglas MacArthur
The soldier above all others prays for peace, for it is the soldier who must suffer and bear the deepest wounds and scars of war. – Douglas MacArthur
