Sandbox.


At Midway Island in June 1942, an SCR-270 antenna and shack [1] were located at the western end of Sand Island [2]. During the Battle of Midway, this radar was used to warn the island of incoming Japanese air attacks [3], but the major naval units did not come into radar range of the island and the island's radar did not play a significant part in the sea portion of the battle.
