General McArthur Return To Manila (silent, 1961)
A ceremonial event involving General and Mrs. MacArthur in the Philippines, where they pay tribute by placing a wreath at the American Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. The scene includes newspaper headlines announcing MacArthur’s return, a small boy selling flags, and crowds in Manila as a motorcade passes. At the International Airport, an honor guard welcomes them, and both General MacArthur and President Carlos P. Garcia deliver speeches to an attentive audience before the MacArthurs depart.
