Welcome to Crossroads. The United States is moving forward with plans to prepare for a potential war for the Chinese Communist Party.

Now, satellite photos show that U.S. troops are now reclaiming a Pacific Island airfield from World War II,

notably one of the ones that was used to launch the nuclear attacks on Japan at the end of the war.

Now, this alliance with recently announced strategies that the United States would establish a network of airfields through the Asia-Pacific region

and then staffed them with troops who are trained

to fill multiple roles.

one of the three principal islands of the Commonwealth of Northern Mariana Islands and administered by the United States, technically a U.S. territory.

Now, Tinyan is under 40 square miles in size and located approximately 1,500 miles south of Tokyo, something that was of strategic value during World War II,

when the island was the launching point for two U.S. bombers again that dropped the atomic bombs

in the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

And now U.S. troops are looking to reclaim an airfield on that island.

Newsweek said this. An overgrown airfield in a small island

in the Pacific, once instrumental in America's role in ending World War II, is being reclaimed

by the U.S. Air Force as prepares for a possible future fight with China. And notes the island is in a

similar distance to China and other flashpoints in Asia,

with the U.S. Defense Department plan costed it nearly half a billion dollars, now preparing

it to help the United States deter or defeat the Chinese military.

It notes that after the Allies captured Tianan in 1944, the U.S. Navy, immediately began

constructing what was the world's largest air base at the time.
