Although he wasn't a director on Broadway, what general was appointed the commander of the Southwest Pacific Theater in March of 1942?

"I shall return," General Douglas MacArthur swore after U.S.-Philippine forces were defeated by Japan in May of 1942. And he was right. President Roosevelt appointed MacArthur supreme commander of the South Pacific Allied Forces in April of 1942. And he would return in a big way, earning the Medal of Honor for his efforts.
