Also known as Eni Kanibu. A small
island on the northeast side of Truk Lagoon.
Picture the outer reef of Truk as a clock, with the North Pass as
12 o'clock. Then about 2 o'clock is the Northeast Pass, and 2-3 outer
reef islands toward 3 o'clock is Eninganimu. The island is not more
than 1/4 mile long, if that.
Costal Gun Ravetment
During the war, two 3 inch mufti purposes guns
and magazines. Revetments were under construction at the end of the
war. The revetment was there, the guns were not.
American Fighter Wreckage
Dick
Williams reports:
"When I was in Truk, Micronesia off and on from 1969-1983, I
saw on the beach, partial wing wreckage. Also saw the engine in the
water. I asked around and was told that a man named Risa, who lived
on Moen Island had found it firstly. I went to him and he explained
that at the end of WWII he went to that island to harvest Copra. There
he found the wreckage piled up on the beach. He found skeletal remains,
part of a flying suit and a few dollars, American. He buried the bones
on the island. I supose this was a shoot down from the Feb., 1944,
Operation Hailstone. This island where the wreck is was quite small.
If you are diving there, watch for sharks on the side of the island
away from the crash."
