Amelia Earhart's Resting Place

[mac_stone]

There's a new article about the mounting evidence that she died a castaway on an island in the Pacific:

 

"For years, Richard Gillespie, TIGHAR's executive director and author of the book "Finding Amelia," and his crew have been searching the Nikumaroro island for evidence of Earhart. A tiny coral atoll, Nikumaroro was some 300 miles southeast of Earhart's target destination, Howland Island."

 

The story of her life and her disappearance has fascinated me since I was a child, and first read about her.

Thanks for friending me - I'm glad you did because I didn't know about this story of her ending up on this island. It seems terrible that she was able to land and yet help never came for her and her navigator.
