STADIUM I 



SANDLOT ACTIVITY, KWAJALEIN. In a treeless 

 stadium at Kwajalein members of the Army Air 

 Forces play a spirited Island League softball game. 

 In the background are C-54 transport planes of 

 the Green Hornet Line. Scenes like this were the 

 exception, not the rule, beside Kwajalein's bust- 

 ling airport. From its scorched airstrip planes of 

 the Green Hornet Line departed for Johnson Is- 

 land, Pearl Harbor, and the United States. Air 

 Transport Command planes used Kwajalein as a 

 way station on their flights to Guam and Tokyo. 

 Unpleasant bedfellow at Kwajalein prior to Test 

 Able was the atomic bomb itself.
