World War I Podcast

The WWI Service of Arthur MacArthur III

MacArthur Memorial; Amanda Williams

Arthur MacArthur III is less well known than his younger brother General Douglas MacArthur and his father, the Civil War hero Arthur MacArthur Jr., but his military career was also quite consequential and full. From the Spanish-American War to his untimely death in 1923, he distinguished himself as a very brave, resourceful, and energetic officer. Unlike his father and brother, however, he did not serve in the US Army. Instead, he served in the US Navy.  

Historian Jeff Acosta joined the World War I podcast to share what is known about Arthur's World War I service.
