BARRIGADA, Guam (July 11, 2025) U.S. Navy Rear Adm. Brett Mietus, commander, Joint Region Marianas, joins U.S. servicemembers, World War II survivors, and Guam politicians for a photo during the Kålaguak memorial ceremony, July 11. The Kålaguak Memorial is a sacred ground for many who lost their lives during WWII after being forced out of their homes by Japanese imperial forces occupying the land. Guam is celebrating its 81th anniversary of liberation from Japanese rule during World World II this year with the theme “Fanohge CHamoru,” which is the opening line of Guam's national anthem and translates to a call to rise united, proud, and strong.
