John Douglas reports:
"In 2001, Gusap, eathworks wise, is
intact. Two strips - grassed, 180 revetments, most aluminium salvaged,
but plenty of concrete slabs, iron debris. Area only half explored
though. Found 10-12 small bulldozers,
all with upper engine gone. I think they are Cletracs. Also two
small carryalls [I think] and a pair of jeep bodies,12 large fuel
tanks [half tear drop shape-about 500-1000 gals] that must fit
under the fuselage of bombers [A-20
cargo pods according to Michael
Claringbould], wrecked GMCs etc. Dumpu strip is just down
the road."
