Map of Pacific Shows Kwajalein
Kwajalein Island is on Kwajalein Atoll in the Marshall Islands in Micronesia.
A random remembrance: I took a Hebrew course on Kwaj as part of the University of Hawaii's extension program. My teacher was Steve London, an Israeli engineer who was head of the Martin-Marietta team responsible for the Zeus Missile launches on Kwaj.
The MIT Lincoln Laboratory team I was on was trying to gain knowledge about identifying reentering warheads. We used radar and optical telescopes on Roi Namur Island at the northern tip of the Kwajalein Atoll. It was 60 miles north of Kwajalein Island. We flew there and back each workday on non-presurized, non air-conditioned DC-3 airplanes... Those Were the Days...;))
