That's Kwajalein, Bikini Atoll I think.

Of interest, if you look at the area on Google Earth, about 3.5 miles to the NW of the airfield just to the North of the island you can just pick out the upturned wreck of the German Cruiser (?) 'Prinz Eugen' where she finished up after the atom bomb tests in 1946.

Embarrassed to have to declare open house if correct as I have nothing immediately prepared.
