Panorama Of
Destruction
Imiage and the other remaining
Japanese bases in the Marshalls had been long since bypassed
and left to whither on the vine by the time the war
ended.
Harrassing air and sea bombardments
were regularly conducted against the garrison, and by August
1945 almost nothing was left standing or intact on the
island.
In the left foreground the Japanese
"hospital" can be seen.
