Douglas MacArthur Talking with Syngman Rhee
General Douglas MacArthur talks with South Korean President Syngman Rhee during ceremonies proclaiming Korea a republic. Acting under orders from Washington, Gen. MacArthur rushed ammunition and other materials to South Korea as Communist North Korean invaders slashed within a few miles of Seoul. In a speech prepared for this occasion, MacArthur said that the barrier separating the North and South of the country "must be torn down."(Photo by Bettmann via Getty Images)
