Runway numbers

There is no information about runway orientation online. I estimated 07/25 based on the satellite photo and the magnetic variation of 8.5E. Please correct if you have more information.

Runway

The runway was made of crushed coral and constructed by the 110th Sea's, 27 days after the securing of the island an SBD landed on the island. this was my home from the 22nd of Feb. 1944 to Oct. of 1945. My outfit ran the CAP after the island was secured. The island was manned nearly by Navy personel.
