In 2016, I was fortunate enough to travel to the Marshall Islands on assignment for Pacific Island Living magazine. What a fascinating place with an intriguing history. Unfortunately, it is best known as the site of the postwar atomic tests carried out by the USA. What I did learn while I was there is that the locals firmly believe Amelia Earhart was transported to the Marshall Islands after crashing neat Jaluit and being captured by the Japanese. They even issued a stamp set to commemorate the event.
