At the end of "Field Marshal of the Philippine Army" and just before the section on World War II are these two sentences:
In Manila, MacArthur was a member of the Freemasons. At the time of the occupation of Japan, MacArthur belonged to Manila Lodge No. 1 and was in the 32nd Masonic rank.
In the second sentence, should the first clause be: "At the time of the occupation BY Japan"? If not, I'm baffled as to how MacArthur's Masonic Lodge affiliation in Manila would have any relevance to the occupation OF Japan--especially since his time in Tokyo would certainly have taken away from any time he could spend in Manila.

Change "was in the 32nd Masonic rank" to "was a 32nd degree Scottish Rite Mason". The phrasing of the original excerpt is incorrect and not used by any regular Masonic body Masonicscribe (talk) 14:49, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It states 'In 1960, the mayor of Norfolk had proposed using funds raised by public contribution to remodel the old Norfolk City Hall as a memorial to General MacArthur and as a repository for his papers', but MacArthur died in 1964? 96.242.5.154 (talk) 00:04, 11 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
MacArthur Memorial indicates that the Mayor and the General agreed to having the site as a repository for his papers. Perhaps the wording can be adjusted here to make it clearer, but the date appears to be correct --John (User:Jwy/talk) 00:25, 11 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
