You threw them on the floor??? That's not how I remember Guam on my occasional stops there back in the good ol' days!
Though I never landed at Agana (we always went up the road to Anderson) I recall that getting in was never much of an issue, with quite good radar control. Certainly there are far worse places to divert into.
Razor, the Naval Air Station was actually at Agana, now the civil airport. It was a joint military/civil field until the NAS was closed in the 90s. You are correct in saying that Anderson AFB, which is still fully operational, is at the north-eastern tip of Guam. Agana is in the middle, closer to the hills.
