1962 Press Photo Douglas MacArthur General Army House

Caption: (WX14) WASHINGTON, AUG.16--AN OLD SOLDIER--Douglas MacArthur, 82-year-old General of the Army, obliges photographers with a wave and a smile today on the House steps of the Capitol. He was honored in a special outdoors ceremony when Congress presented him with a resolution thanking him for his service to the American people. It was in a 1951 speech to Congress that he quoted this line from an old barracks room ballad: "Old soldiers never die, they just fade away.".
