On March 11, 1942, during WWII, General Douglas MacArthur and members of his family and staff left the Philippine island and his forces, which were surrounded by the Japanese. They traveled in patrol torpedo boats through stormy seas patrolled by Japanese warships and reached Mindanao two days later. From there, MacArthur and his party flew to Australia in a pair of Boeing B-17 Flying Fortresses, ultimately arriving in Melbourne by train on March 21, where he declared «I came through and I shall return».

In August 1943, Colonel Courtney Whitney proposed distributing propaganda items with General Douglas MacArthur's famous promise «I Shall Return» to the native population in the Japanese-occupied Philippines. The Office of War Information classified the project as top secret and commissioned the Larus & Bro. Tobacco Company to produce the items, which had previously won a contract to provide Chelsea Cigarettes for soldiers' field rations. These included «I Shall Return» cigarettes, matchbooks, matchboxes and mirrored reflectors for aircraft signaling. They were smuggled behind enemy lines by the U.S. submarine Narwhal and dropped at night by B-24 Liberator bombers and distributed by American and Filipino guerrillas. These cigarettes helped to keep hope of liberation alive among the Filipinos until General MacArthur's return.
