Waqala ukuphanda iGuam ngaphezulu kweminyaka eli-10 eyadlulayo xa yaba yindawo ekugxilwe kuyo kubuchule bezomkhosi base-US. Kuba iGuam yikholoni yase-US emkhosini uziva ukuba esi siqithi yindawo ekhuselekileyo kunezinye iindawo ezingamazwe azimeleyo, utshilo.
Umkhosi wase-US awukwazanga ukwenza ngokokuthanda kwawo kwiindawo ezinjengePhilippines kunye neJapan, ke ibona iGuam njengendawo ekhuselekileyo yokwakha ngenxa yobume bayo bobukoloniyali, utshilo uDavis.
Kodwa abantu abaninzi eGuam bacaphuke kakhulu kwaye basebenza ukuvimba ezinye izicwangciso zomkhosi wase-US malunga neGuam, ekhokelele ekubeni iPågat ingasetyenziswa njengoko bekucwangcisiwe kuluhlu lokudubula, utshilo. Ikwakhokelele ekunciphiseni kolwakhiwo.

UGanger uthe umahluko phakathi komkhosi kunye noluntu lwasekhaya luyabonakala nakwimalini echithwe kwimbuyekezo yemfazwe. Wabelana ngendlela umakhulu wakhe, owasinda emfazweni, anikwa ngayo i-10,000 yeedola ngexesha lakhe lemfazwe, kodwa umkhosi uchitha malunga ne-16,000 yeedola ekufumaneni umntu omtsha.
UDavis uthe ukuzimela kunye nemikhosi iyahambelana njengoko umkhosi wase-US awufuni ukunika ulongamo lwezopolitiko kwiindawo ezilawulayo. Uthe umkhosi awucingi ngokhuseleko lwePacific Islands, kodwa ngokwalo nakwilizwekazi laseMelika.
Imizekelo yamva nje, ye-USS Theodore Roosevelt izisa amakhulu e-COV, amatyala e-ID-19 kunye neRim yePacific Exercise esacwangcisiweyo eHawaii, bonisa umkhosi awucingi ngokhuseleko lwabantu balapho, utshilo uDavis.
Uthe umkhosi awuyi kuzisa amawaka abantu kwilizwe lase-US ngexesha lobhubhane oluqhubekayo kodwa kulungile ukwenza ePacific.
