Poor Amelia..left to die on that island...I really feel for her and Fred...To think they could have been rescued with more searching or better methods of searching...left to die, crabs and other creatures disposing of the bodies....sad indeed...

So many search planes ,launched from USN vessels even slowed to 80mph around those islands.Pre-war observation posts,military men stationed on island and not even a trace.Over 200 coconut trees for water,pools of fish in coves,crabs to eat prove even an amateur could survive there for decades.Her mother stated was aspect of her flight she could not discuss so maybe cameras were set and IMPERIAL JAPAN murdered them as spies..The beacon vessel Itasca had her marked on line but she could not hear them.I think she over shot phoenix islands by 400km NorthEast ,and went into the ocean.The japanese government got insulted not being believed they did not murder them.So much activity on those islands rule out a landing.

@@aldenunion they didn't find them because they were wrong about their location on the island . They said "we can hear you but can't see you , we must be on top of you " when flying by to search . The whole time they were 200 miles either to the north more or the south

There is a new photo of her in 2017. It was on Jaruit island dock, on her way to Saipan on the Kosho Naru a Japanese nalaval vessel. Her Electra is also in the photo, on a small barge in tow. Noonen is pictured on the dock. The photo was taken by the US Office of Naval Intelligence ONI #14381 (www.archives.gov/news/topics/jaluit-harbor-image) to show that the Japanese had installed cement docks in 1936. Amelia was accidentally imaged by the US Navy's intelligence photographer, sitting on the cement dock in the photo so it has to have been taken after 1936. Additionally, it definitively places the Kosho Naru in port on Jaluit Atoll after 1936, the only date after 1936 the Kosho's records show it in port there was mid-July on a stop-over from Mili Atoll to Saipan, where Amelia was delivered and held with Fred Noonen until both were executed by the Japanese chief of military police running Camp Susupe in Garapan Saipan. His daughter eye-witnessed the killing of Amelia which she describes in tremendous detail in Fred Goerner's 1966 best seller, The Search for Amelia Earhart. Fred was beheaded by a Japanese captain named Nitti Bucho. Fred Goerner gathered written records of over 200 eyewitnesses who gave sworn testimony to AE's presence there along with their unique stories. This includes sworn written testimony of 13 US Marines who fought there, including one befriended Admiral Nimitz. Amazingly, Fred Goerner's material is still avaiaible in the official Nimitz museum. Recently, the solid metal food door to the jail cell with the inscription, "July 29, 1937 A. Earhart" very deeply and clearly etched into its cell-side face was produced by Deanna Mick. She was an airline instructor on Saipan International, formerly Japanese Asulito Field, where Amelia's Electra was stored until destroyed in 1944 under the in-person supervision of then Secretary of the Navy James Forestall after Marines seized the island. Her jail cell food door was given to Mick by a dear islander friend who had stashed it. Deanna refused to release the door for fitting against Earharts Garapan jail cell food opening frame's torn metal hinges, fearing it would dissapear forever, so she rubbed a pencil over the broken hinges on paper. The traced image was sent to an analyst in Garapan and it produced a fingerprint-like match, ending the mystery once and for all. images.app.goo.gl/3GvWa38YKXg5reJ16
