A thread to gladden many hearts around here presumably.
Reading the thread in Chat about just why Douglas MacArthur is so loathed in these parts I got to thinking about how the Philippines campaign would have unfolded if he had not been in command in 1941.
For the sake of argument MacArthur dies before becoming field marshal of the Philippines in 1935, who would end up organising the Philippines military after that time and who would be in charge of the island's defence in 1941 and how could they react?
