Thank you TC for the wonderfully detailed story of the air fights over Guam. I lived there from 1950 to 1956. My Dad was working for a construction company under contract to the Navy to rebuild base housing, fuel farms and major repairs to the bases. I was 16 yrs. old when we came to the states. I remember what a great holiday July 21 was as it was Liberation day! Full of parades and parties. We were taught about Tweed and his life in the caves so he could inform the troops about enemies positions. The Guamians were very proud of their part in hiding him. Your story today brought back a lot of memories. Thank you!
