The Revitalization of Tinian: America's Pacific Strategy Against China
Tinian, a remote island in the Pacific, is undergoing a significant transformation as the United States prepares for potential geopolitical conflict. Once the home of Northfield—a base responsible for servicing the aircraft that dropped atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki during World War II—Tinian has lain dormant since being abandoned by the U.S. military. However, recent satellite images reveal that military crews are clearing the dense overgrowth, signifying a revival of the airbase that may play a crucial role in future conflicts.
