Shemya Isle
Is Fortified
Headquarters, Alaskan Dept.
—(.PI—Occupation and fortifi
cation of Shemya, small but im
portant island in the far western
Aleutians, was revealed Mon
day.
Troops went ashore during a
howling storm during the battle
of Attu in May, 1943. Picked
men of the famed Fourth In
fantry regiment, the same out
fit that captured Lion mountain
near close of Attu battle, en
countered no resistance al
though reconnaissance of Alas
kan scouts proved the Japs had
been there and surveyed the
island, probably for occupation
and construction of military
installations.
Shemya island, only 5 square
miles, is now one of the most
important military bastions in
the western Aleutians. Engineers
for the past 10 months have
almost rebuilt the island to
make it impregnable from as
sault. Despite extremely rough
living conditions during the first
few months the island is now as
comfortable as any in the Aleu
tian chain.
