Naka
editThe USS Seawolf (SS-197) page says the Naka was not hit, but this page says it was. Somebody who knows might like to resolve that discrepancy. -- Kevin Ryde 23:30, 11 February 2006 (UTC)
- I have a reference that appears to give first-hand confirmation that the Naka was indeed hit. I've added the reference to this article. I'll also add the reference to the Seawolf article. Cla68 14:27, 16 April 2006 (UTC)
- Confirmed by Blair. Hara's a bit unreliable, FWI read. (I'm so embarassed I didn't notice this before... :( ) TREKphiler hit me ♠ 06:39, 14 September 2009 (UTC)
Christmas Islands
editThere a 2 Christmas Islands. One in the Indian & 1 in the Pacific Ocean. The 1 in the Pacific had an airfield during WWII. The other didn't. Therefore I have deleted the paragraph about an airfield. Graeme374 (talk) 06:25, 2 June 2011 (UTC)
Map is no good
editI don't know what happened, but the main map only shows up at like 240x240p, even when you click on it. You cannot make out the slightest amount of detail. I can barely make out that there is a tiny speck on it which must be the island, surrounded by an almost invisible larger square which apparently highlights the area which is magnified in the inset, but I can't see anything of the inset itself at all. It's basically worthless as a map in present form. I assume it once had a higher resolution, but something went wrong in the process us uploading it perhaps.
