I Imagine there were other ww11 surplus deport on  islands thru-out the
far-east that were loaded with    equipment that was put ashore like
Siapan,guam
etc some to stay as the advancement  of the war progressed to other Islands.
what i'm trying to put across is that this equipment was mostly junk after
been weathered out from the elements on the Island of Okinawa,typhoons etc.
