Three miles south of Saipan is Tinian--from which the Enola Gay took off on its fateful Hiroshima mission of 1945. It would be a missed opportunity to come all the way to Saipan and not visit this site that changed the course of history. We'll also see indigenous Chamorro & Carolinian sites, with some of the largest latte stones in existence! Walt holds a B. S. in Civil Engineering from Columbia University, and relocated from NYC to Saipan in Feb 2006. He has written 7 books, launched over 20 websites, written a weekly column in the Saipan Tribune and launched fundraisers all devoted to sharing the culture and history of these islands. In 2007, he received a Senate Resolution for "his numerous accomplishments with and without the Commonwealth; Expressing gratitude for his efforts for the betterment of the people of the Commonwealth, " AND, is the 2021 recipient of the Governor's Humanities Award for Research & Publication in the Humanities, Outstanding Humanities Teacher, & Preservation of CNMI history.
