Sun was just about set and I needed to get back to the boat. That meant a walk through the bird colonies between the Commander’s House and the JOC out to the main road.
This section was mostly red-footed boobies and greater frigatebirds. There were a few grey-backed terns on the seawall near the steps earlier, but they all left a few minutes before I started moving. The sooty tern colony was still further east but you can hear them squawking in the background the whole time. (Heck, you can hear them squawking from the boat tied up at the Main Wharf!)
As you can see the roads are overgrown, but still mostly passable on foot.
I also show you how to unlock the door to get into the JOC!

Very cool to see nature and the birds taking it back. Nov. 1991 - Nov. 2003

Just curious what exactly are you folks doing there? I sure appreciate all this footage of my home for 15+ years! Such fond memories!!!

Was the Joc locked down or is it open?

That one door is open. It’s held shut by that metal block and a bolt in the concrete.

Do you think DOD could reuse that island 🏝 again?

Bet DoD eyeing it again with what’s going on in Asia. Perfectly able to handle SAMs, THAAD, or marine portable cruise launched missiles.

Weren't you concerned about the plutonium and radium contamination?

No. We did bring Geiger counters and dosimeters on this trip, but they registered nothing above normal background levels of radiation.

@@AroundtheWorld-SallyandJamesYou would need very specialized equipment to easily detect plutonium in the environment. However there are good reasons to think that most of the radiological hazards on Johnston Atoll have been remediated by now - a lot of work was done to survey and decontaminate Johnston Atoll over the years.
