•  Info created by U.S. Coast Guard - uploaded by Fastfission - nominated by BrokenSphere --BrokenSphere 02:07, 22 August 2007 (UTC)

•  Info Some additional info - this pic is used on 10 other Wikimedia projects (oddly enough, not on the English Wikipedia) and from what I've seen in print media at least, is one of the iconic photos of MacArthur. That aside, if there are technical issues please bring them forward if they can be addressed. BrokenSphere 15:41, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

•  Support - That's a fantastic portrait, especially with the reflection in the sunglasses.--Ragesoss 02:48, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
•  Support - Great b&w snapshot with historical significance, though the background is a bit distracting. We need more of these! --AM 16:14, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

Blame the original photographer; I haven't seen a version of this pic which is "properly" oriented, i.e. with MacArthur's face at a 90 degree angle. BrokenSphere 19:32, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

I always presumed he was seated and leaning back. Adam Cuerden 01:31, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
