Justin Taylan adds:
"I
visited this area on November 22, 2003, and the local kids and elders
showed me several sites: a kitchen mess area where the Americans
ate, the site of several wartime graves of Americans that died here
(unclear if they were exhumed post war or not) and the kids knew
of an airplane wreck down the beach to the west, we walked for a
long time, but never found it before time there ran out. They also
pointed out the site of the sunken ship, s'Jacob."
