BORA-BORA: Forgotten WW2 ???? American radar station, used to detect Japanese attacks

Island of Bora-Bora (Bora Bora), Pacific Ocean - the forgotten second world war (WW2) American radar station in Bora-Bora (Bora Bora) in the Pacific Ocean. Here's the forgotten WW2 American radar station built on top of an extinct volcano on the northern part of Bora-Bora (Bora Bora) in the , Pacific Ocean. The forgotten WW2 American radar station in Bora Bora (Bora-Bora) was later on destroyed by the Americans (maybe in 1946) and it has remained undiscovered and in runs, this is the first video about it..
In World War II the United States chose Bora Bora as a South Pacific military supply base, and an oil depot, airstrip, seaplane base, and defensive fortifications were constructed. Known as Operation Bobcat, it maintained a supply force of nine ships, 20,000 tons of equipment and nearly 7,000 men.
At least eight 7/44 caliber guns, operated by elements of the 13th Coast Artillery Regiment (later the 276th Coast Artillery Battalion), were set up at strategic points around the island to protect it against potential military attack. Eight of these guns remain in the area.
However, the island saw no combat as the American presence on Bora Bora went uncontested over the course of the war. The base was officially closed on 2 June 1946. The World War II airstrip was never able to accommodate large aircraft, but it nonetheless was French Polynesia's only international airport until Faa'a International Airport opened next to Papeete, Tahiti, in 1960.
