Talk:Kerama Islands

Retto?

 * Is there a reason this page is titled "Kerama Retto" rather than "Kerama Islands"? Is it really so widely known as "Kerama Retto" in English, even though the Japanese name is actually "Kerama Shotō" anyway?  --Shiquasa (talk) 07:18, 11 April 2008 (UTC)


 * A lot of references in US World War 2 articles log the location as "Kerama Retto", so I suspect that is a major reason for it to be called that.


 * I have looked for references to the seaplane base that was established there, from my own research, and maps with English legends are hard to locate. --jws  —Preceding undated comment was added at 00:46, 26 November 2008 (UTC).
