Carney was a U.S. Navy admiral and had a distinguished career through World War Two; he helped to arrange and was present at the Japanese surrender ceremony aboard the U.S.S. Missouri; he served as commander-in-chief of NATO forces in Southern Europe (1951-53) and Chief of Naval Operations (1953-54). MacArthur was a famed New York socialite and philanthropist and devoted wife of controversial general Douglas MacArthur; she was at his side aboard a PT boat when he left the Philippines ahead of a Japanese siege; she often represented him at official functions.

Missouri on V-J Day -- September 2, 1945 -- showing Douglas MacArthur standing at left in foreground in front of a microphone watching Japanese general Yoshijiro Umezu at right signing the surrender document on behalf of the armed forces as their senior officer. Rows of the highest-ranking American officers -- Nimitz, Halsey, etc. -- fill the background. Along the narrow blank upper margin, Robert B. Carney signs boldly in black fineline and actually draws an arrow about one inch down to himself, standing alongside Admiral William F. "Bull" Halsey. On the same margin, at left directly above General Douglas MacArthur, his wife signs "Mrs Douglas MacArthur," also in black fineline.

Missouri in Tokyo Bay. V-J Day Sept. 2, 1945. McArthur & Aide. (Halsey in Center Rear) N-2." An evocative, iconic image signed later in life by the last surviving U.S. admiral present and the wife of the noted general at front.…
