Macarthur Memorial Podcast

As the commander of the American Expeditionary Forces during World War I, John J. Pershing served as a mentor to a generation of generals who later led the United States to victory in World War II. Some of these young officers included: Douglas MacArthur, George C. Marshall, Dwight D. Eisenhower, Omar N. Bradley, and George S. Patton. In 2013, U.S. Army Major Andrew Forney sat down with the Memorial's staff to talk about Pershing's life and legacy. At the time of the interview, Major Forney was serving as an instructor in American History at the United States Military Academy at West Point.
