Virtual Tour of the MacArthur Memorial | Norfolk, Virginia

You couldn’t ask for a more expert virtual tour than from someone who works here! I have been fortunate enough to work at the General Douglas MacArthur Memorial as a Museum Attendant (at the time of filming). I knew that MacArthur was a larger than life historical figure…but I never know HOW BIG he was in America during his heyday.

If you love World War II history, I cannot recommend this memorial enough!
