MacArthur flew to Australia with his family in 1942 and made his famous promise "I came through and I shall return". In which he stated his desire to keep his promise to return to the Philippines, which he fulfilled after defeating the Japanese in New Guinea with strategic control, when he returned he stated <em>“I have returned. By the grace of Almighty God, our forces stand again on Philippine soil.”</em> MacArthur was awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor and other awards for his great role.

Wade case the Supreme Court had to see if  the right to privacy of the 14th Amendment is applied to abortion and they decided it did. They used the compelling interest test to balance this with the state's interest in the welfare of women and the potential human life that is the baby. So the court limited state's regulations on abortion.
