This navaid is on an island in the Pacific, the site of a major WWII battle.
It's located on a major airport. Until recently, ATC Approach Control was conducted by the United States Air Force (from another airfield), but the island itself is no longer under U.S. control.
From the end of WWII until 1978, people here drove their cars on the right side of the street.
This navaid's name is sometimes intentionally slightly mispronounced by pilots and dispatchers, so it ends up being something you might get kicked out of school for having!
The nearby town by the same name has a connection to "Licking".
Exercise machines are made in that building in the background.
This navaid is named after a nearby small town. The town is not named after him, but part of its name is that of a famous composer.The composer is Bach.
The closest airport to it, 14 nautical miles away, is a grass strip, named after the county where it is located.Greeley is the name of the airport and county.
That county is named in honor of a newspaper publisher who is credited (whether he originated this phrase or not is disputed) with giving advice that contributed to the expansion of the United States.It's named after Horace Greeley, of the New York Tribune, who said "Go West, Young Man")
