Marcus island is just empty also, needs some minor facilities there.Thanks in advance.
Major 'Hammerin' Hank' Talmadge Elrod's Marine Corps wild cat fighter might be a nice touch; The prop hub is at the McMinnville Air Museum in Oregan. He won the Congressional Medal of Honor at Wake Island(posthumously 12/23/41) and, until the midget sub was recently discovered off Pearl Harbor,(sunk by Minnesota reservists on the USS Ward with a 6" cannon), was credited with shooting down two aircraft and sinking the first Japanese warship (Kisaragi) in the Pacific war. He died on the beach, Thompson .45 in hand at the head of his improvised defense force, gamely repelling Imperial Marines landing on Wake. Truly lived up to: 'On the Land, Sea and Air!' and was overlooked in a us mail memorial stamp release of MOH winners recently?
