    Yes. .And the movie was Penny Serenade, with Irene Dunne and Cary Grant. A real tear-jerker.

    My favorite scene, but the audio is poor quality. :(

    You are too good to me @Nancy Hart. That is country music legend Slim Dusty or David Gordon Kirkpatrick as he was born.

    General Douglas MacArthur.
    He made some rather disparaging comments about the Australian soldier. I expect he changed his mind when Aussie troops stopped the Japanese advance to Port Morseby in PNG in 1942.

    Yes. . Not my favorite guy for sure.

    I had a friend who was in the Army stationed in Japan after the war and MacArthur walked by him in an inspection ceremony one time. He said MacArthur was wearing heavy makeup. I thought that was odd.

    @Nancy Hart
    I learned some new facts about the man while recently reading a book about the war in the Pacific. He loved the Philippines. He stood next to Emperor Hirohito for picture-taking during the signing of the Surrender. A head taller than the Emperor, he was afterward destined to essentially become "King" of Japan: everything done went through his command. He was very politically astute. He retired in the Philippines.
