You are confusing McDonnell with McDonald. Donald Douglas, who was once a design engineer at Martin Aircraft, formed the Douglas Aircraft Company circa 1920. Douglas and his company turned out some of the most famous and well-built aircraft of all time, some of which are still flying today.
The DC-3 (C-47 when in uniform) was a great example. James McDonnell was building aircraft at about the same time, with aircraft like the F-101 and the F-4 Phantom to his name. During the 1960s, both companies were keen to get involved in the new business of rockets and missiles, but both were struggling with airliners and other projects that were only marginally profitable.
In 1967, the two companies merged and became McDonnell Douglas. The merged companies' first major product was the DC-10 airliner, and its later revision became the MD-11 (MD for McDonnell Douglas. ) Ronald McDonald does not build aircraft.
He barely builds hamburgers.
I'm going to go out on a limb here... ...forgive me if there is some recent news about the fast food franchise entering the aircraft manufacturing business that I missed, but, I think this is the source of the mystery: THE McDONNELL DOUGLAS COMPANY Read the following historical introduction from Wikipedia: "The company was founded from the firms of James Smith McDonnell and Donald Wills Douglas. Both men were of Scottish ancestry, graduates of MIT and had worked for the aircraft manufacturer Glenn L. Martin Company.
Douglas had been chief engineer at Martin before leaving to establish Davis-Douglas Company in early 1920 in Los Angeles. He bought out his backer and renamed the firm the Douglas Aircraft Company in 1921. McDonnell founded J.S. McDonnell & Associates in Milwaukee, Wisconsin in 1928.
His idea was to produce a personal aircraft for family use. The economic depression from 1929 ruined his ideas and the company collapsed. He went to work for Glenn L.
Martin. He left in 1938 to try again with his own firm, McDonnell Aircraft Corporation, this time based near St. Louis, Missouri ... ...In 1967, with the merger of McDonnell and Douglas Aircraft, Dave Lewis, then president of McDonnell, was named chairman of what was called the Long Beach, Douglas Aircraft Division...."

Close You're close. Mcdonnell Aircraft, no relation to McDonalds burgers, bought Douglas back around 1966. Mcdonnel had lots of cash from many successful military orders, and Douglas was struggling as Boeing had beat them to the jet age.
No deep financial research needed here... It's actually "McDonnell Douglas", not "McDonald": en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McDonnell_Douglas So...no, unless that clown did his secret business under a really bad pseudonym.
They were a merger between McDonnel and Douglass, and they produced many civilian and military aircraft. They they were later bought out by Boeing. I don't think the McDonalds fast food company had anything to do with them.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
