Synopsis
Today Jean MacArthur is largely in the shadow of her husband General Douglas MacArthur. By all accounts however, she was a vital member of his inner circle and many of her husband’s biographers considered her an “unusual” but extraordinary woman. Part I covered Mrs. MacArthur’s life up to the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. Part II gives a behind the scenes look at her experiences from the flight to Corregidor on Christmas Eve in 1941 to her death in 2000. **A listener pointed out an error in this podcast - the MacArthurs did not arrive in Brisbane by train from Adelaide. They actually arrived in Melbourne and then months later relocated to Brisbane.**
