Synopsis by Rob Ferrier
Crusade in the Pacific is a video series that documents the fighting between the United States and Japan's Empire of the Rising Sun during and immediately after World War II. Each episode examines a crucial stage in a war that was contested bitterly and marked by unheard-of savagery. This episode, Crusade in the Pacific: Stepping Stones to the Philippines, covers the battles immediately preceding MacArthur's long awaited return to the Philippines, and examines the role his ego may have played in his decision making.
