This point of land was at the center of the Agat
landing beach. In July 1944, dense groves of coconut palms
covered the area. After Americans secured the island, the
Navy cleared the field and setup shelters here for more than 6,000
native Chamorros released from Japanese concentration camps on the
east side of the island.
Today at Ga'an Point three flags are flown to commemorate those who
died for their country: |
Americans, Chamorros, and Japanese. |
