sry read ww1 when I read it ....but my father was a Naval Radioman, stationed in Hawaii during WW2...and every island pic I ever saw in his pictures he brough back looked like the next one.... all the same looking to me can't rell.one from the other and that's what he told me held true.....our planes regularly hit the wrong targets because one looked like the next ....he flew long missions in the Pacific to intercept Japanese radio transmissions and keyed them back to Hawaii to fleet command ...we were so short on pilots at first that he flew with a Rear Admiral as the Pilot who had retired 3 years before the war...
