what do we need to do to get the army and the navy ready? as the chief of public information, douglas macarthur was at the forefront telling the story of the army, showcasing it, and how to get it from where it is to where it needs to be. a lot of people criticized douglas macarthur later for a flare of publicity and that he was a shameless self promoter. there is a certain amount of truth to that but you need to remember that he learned that at a very early age. he learned that at the early age. and in many ways, he was ahead of his contemporaries in terms of press relations. and the skills he will learn here he will use for the rest of his career. and with that, let us go upstairs and take a look at macarthur in world war i. world war i started in august, 1914 but the u.s. did not get involved until 1917. the army at the time numbered only about 400,000 active, reserve, and national guard. over the next 18 months, the army would grow to 4 million. a tremendous war effort on the part of the u.s. at the core of this was douglas macarthur. one
