Yes – well done John. It is indeed one of the runways at what was Tinian North Field whence the two atomic bomb missions were launched on Japan. The two bomb pits from which the B29s Enola Gay and Bock’s Car were loaded are still evident also. Open house it is then.
(A belated word of thanks to I.garey for his interesting previous challenge. When I started work in Peterborough in 1964 Westwood airfield was still discernible – all housing now.)
