Good morning all,

Above links to an article on the battle of Wake Island.

The Pan Am hotel mentioned as "opulent" involves some literary license. It was a pre-fab building although it was closer to being a real hotel than a barracks.

Some South Vietnamese war refugees were processed on Wake circa 1975.
