Wow! I have been to this area numerous times: Guam, Palau, Ponape, Kwajalein, Truk aka Chuuk...Micronesia, the Marshall Islands and the northern Marianas. The “islands” are merely atolls, reefs that have popped up above sea level. Most are no more than single digits above sea level, so navigating by visual aids is nearly impossible. I don’t know the details in this story, but to be located and saved is truly amazing.
