I like the aerial photo of the island - awesome that those guys did all that work there setting up landing strips and maintenance operations and did the war thing from there. I doubt our current military is as innovative in using what is at hand as these Iowa farm boys were back then. We got more tech and larger troop support, but much of that is probably very superfluous in a war zone. Getting by with what we got is perhaps an art long lost in today's culture, but maybe I say that today since I am an old guy now... mao
