You don't have any military experience, do You?

So, they were following orders, were they?

The cover-up must have been in support of some larger objective. What was it? What was FDR covering up?

Why wasn't Amelia Earhart the cherry on top of the case against the Empire of Japan? She was a popular celebrity, well known at the time. It would have required no explanation to the low-information crowd.

This case should be closed. This should all be part of some National Park Service exhibit somewhere in the far-flung islands.

Following orders?
The GIs were.
But Amelia? She was probably intrigued by the possibility of being a major player in the WWII effort.
Or she could have been working a deal with the government to cut the cost of expenses.
Who knows?
But there are enough witnesses to end most questions about what happened.
The public at the time didn't even know or suspect the Japanese capturing Amelia and Fred Noonan.
Roosevelt would have been ashamed to admit to using a woman to spy on the Japanese, let alone trying to use her as a whip against the Empire of Japan.
The public was different then, and not feminized like today.
The public wanted to win, and was full speed ahead on attacking and destroying our enemy, unlike todays' cowards in the media.

But I wouldn't put it past the media or the Democrats to try to use the issue as a diversion from their failures and criminal activities today.

There's a lot of distance between Mili Atoll(left and left-center) and Gardner Island (now Nikumaroro).
Check the map below (lower center and left).

I believe the crash was west of Mili Atoll.
