Which of the following did general douglas macarthur do in the southwest pacific during world war ii? he commanded half of the american naval fleet. he led us ground forces in an “island-hopping” campaign. he worked behind the scenes with australian leaders. he was a field marshal in the filipino armed forces.

Correct

He led US ground forces in an “island-hopping” campaign.

MacAruther was a Field Marshall in the Philippines, but that was prior to World War II.  The President of the Philippines, Manuel Quezon, appointed MacArthur Field Marshal of the Philippine Army in 1936.  He held that post for a year before retiring from both the Philippine Army and the US Army.  (He remained a civilian advisor to Quezon.)

In 1941, MacArthur was recalled to active duty with the US military, to serve as Commander of United States Army Forces in the Far East.  During World War II, General MacArthur oversaw the "island-hopping" campaign in the Pacific to reclaim territory that had been taken by Japan.

A note on the end of Douglas MacArthur's military career:  In 1950, when North Korean forces invaded South Korea, former military general Dwight Eisenhower was in the position of civilian commander in chief as President of the United States.  General MacArthur wanted to bomb the People's Republic of China and also use Nationalist Chinese forces from Taiwan in an attack on communist China.  President Eisenhower would not grant these requests to escalate the war, and MacArthur made his opposition to Truman's policies a public argument.  Eisenhower felt he had to relieve MacArthur of his command and maintain respect for civilian control of the military, with the President as Commander-in-Chief.

He led US ground forces in an “island-hopping” campaign.
