"Now Canton Island was to be the island which would be our next stop and I will never forget that place. From five or 10,000 feet in the air...as we came into Canton Island that morning...the surf combined with the whiteness of the coral and of course the ocean had a very mottled look, as if someone had taken something and roughed it up with sandpaper. There didn't seem to be anything to it. You wouldn't have paid any attention, but of course the pilot knew where he was, and he landed us there. "

Letter from Stg. Philip Ingram

US troops arrived in force today, and the USO was already there:

You should collect and publish all these maps, letters, etc. after the war is over. Top notch!

Great AAR, but note that the name indonesia only appered after the independence in 1949.
before that it was kown as "Netherlands east indies", short NEI.
And i don't think you are that far into the game.

Keep up the nice work.\

Great stuff.
Never in the field of humorous AARs was so much owed by so many to so few. [&o]
