Famous WW2 Quote
"I have returned. By the grace of Almighty God, our forces stand again on Philippine soil."General Douglas MacArthur at Leyte, 17 Oct 1944

US Navy identified the officers as: Vice Admiral William S. Pye Lieutenant General Delos C. Emmons, U.S. Army, (probably) Rear Admiral Claude C. Bloch Rear Admiral William R. Furlong (almost completely hidden behind RAdm. Bloch) Rear Admiral John H. Newton Rear Admiral Thomas Withers Rear Admiral Milo F. Draemel. Last two officers on left (not listed in order, and one nearly hidden) are possibly Captain Harold C. Train and Rear Admiral William L. Calhoun.
