LOL! Dougie was one of the Household Gods when I was growing
up...my family was always fond of megalomaniacs. One of my
favorite parts of Truman's book Plain Speaking was when
he talked about that SOB MacArthur always wearing a
crumpled field hat...Truman said he probably had an aide
who did nothing but pre-crumple his hats for him!
