Love it! WIA Navy tags are few and far between

They are! I only have 3 WIA Navy tags. But I bet I have the rarest island WIA, yet probably least desirable lol. Sure it's not the Canal or Iwo Jima, but who else has a tag of a guy wounded on an island that nobody has ever heard of called Apamama LOL.
