Wake Island

Just saw a documentary on wake island yesterday. From what I saw the island was the site of several battles which ultimately resulted in the loss of the island to the Japanese. However, the island was essentially useless to them due to American forces being in the area stopping any supply runs to the island, and Japan's own negligence.

With that said there is a little problem in SH4. That problem is the air base on wake that interdicts US submarines (us) when transiting from Pearl to Japan's coast.

It would seem the island had the potential to be a thorn in the side of Sub Pac, but in fact it was not.

In future mods perhaps it would be a good idea to remove this air base node.
