South Pacific islands liberated by U.S. forces such as Yap, Marquesas, Marianas, or which became U.S. bases after 1945, had cultures where local women went topless, purely optional.

Wonder what the decisionmakers were thinking when they chose base locations?

The women may have been Micronesian rather than Polynesian (Tahiti was featured in Nat Geo in the 1920’s & 1930’s) but were well worth a second look.

Library collections of Nat Geo from that era have probably long since been scissored into oblivion.
