History
Although this island is Green Island, the wartime strip, referred to as "Green Island" was actually on nearby Nissian Island.

John Douglas adds:
"The story about the Nissan Island waterlandings is to me a bit less certain, as  well as the story about the survivors injuries. He also said that half the planes landed at Nissan Island, not Nuguria. They also put down in deep water, and despite a good searh could only find the remains of a Corsair there,This location was confirmed by the Nissan locals.He said that this variation was confirmed by an American researher that they used, as well."
