I got all you one-time visitors beat. I spent two wonderful years of my childhood playing army man in and around bunkers and other assorted war junk on Wake. I often got spanked for walking home from school along the beach instead of the trail I was supposed to take. No TV. No Radio. Absolute paradise for a kid. The place is seared permanently into my brain. Hope it comes out OK.

"I got all you one-time visitors beat."

I am another one-timer visitor to the Island. Was there for about thirty minutes or so in 1966.
