This Island had 1000 people and 600 of them were prisoners.  It was half way between Japan and Australia and we went there to clear the minefields that stopped the Japanese using it as a refuelling base.  It was also the Island the the Americans used to set off from for the battle of Midway.  This is a newsletter from when I was there.
