Apparently the big quote at the end was not MacArthur's...

"Oliver Prince Smith (October 26, 1893 – December 25, 1977) was a General in the United States Marine Corps
and a highly decorated combat veteran of World War II and the Korean War. He is most noted for commanding
the 1st Marine Division during the Battle of Chosin Reservoir, where he said "Retreat, hell! We're not retreating,
we're just advancing in a different direction."

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oliver_P._Smith


(i guess they softened it with "often attributed")
