The General's Protector

By Bud Smythe

As an account of the rigors of becoming an infantry paratrooper and subsequently a personal bodyguard to General Douglas MacArthur, the General's Protector outlines the life of an army soldier in post-World War II in occupied Japan. Starting with the severities of growing up in dire poverty, the introduction to the military life as a young teenager, the enlistment and relocation to Japan. The General's Protector takes us from the adjustment to the extreme cultural change experienced in Japan to the serious preoccupation of protecting a world famous five star general.
