Guam: U.S. Defense Deployments
The United States military has been building up forces on the U.S. territory of Guam to increase deterrence and power projection for possible responses to crises and disasters, counter-terrorism, and contingencies in support of South Korea, Japan, the Philippines, Taiwan, or elsewhere in Asia. But the defense buildup on Guam is moderate. China has concerns about the defense buildup. Guam's role has increased with plans to withdraw some U.S. forces from Japan and South Korea. This report describes in brief detail the various cooperative efforts, including financial efforts, undertaken by the U.S. and the above nations.

[Letter from Agnes Langley Niernberger, May 2, 1945]
Letter from Agnes Langley Niernberger to her family recounting her daily life while sailing from the United States to the Philippine Islands and upon arriving there. On the island, she tells them that they live in an old Catholic Academy with partial damage from the war, sleep on cots with mosquito bars, and eat with mess kits and canteens in a tent. She mentions that upon arriving, the Filipino people were happy to see them. Agnes' life on the boat consisted of dancing, singing, performances from the G. I. Orchestra, movies, and sleeping on the boat deck. She says it is the first day they received mail since leaving the U.S., and that she received letters from many friends and family, and that she was shocked to hear of President Roosevelt's death and excited to hear of Adolf Hitler's death. She asks if they received a brown envelope that they talked about when she was previously home, and says she will write when she can.
