Definition
What does UM-67 mean?
- Johnston Atoll
- Johnston Atoll is an uninhabited 1.03 sq mi atoll in the North Pacific Ocean about 750 nmi southwest of the Hawaii Islands. The atoll, which is located on a coral reef platform, comprises four islands. Johnston and Sand islands are both enlarged natural features, while North and East are two artificial islands formed by coral dredging. Johnston Atoll is grouped as one of the United States Minor Outlying Islands. For nearly 70 years, the atoll was under the control of the American military. In that time it was used as an airbase, a naval refuelling depot and a weapons testing area. In the mid-1980s, the atoll became a facility for chemical weapons disposal. In 2004 the military base was closed; island control was handed over to civilian authorities. Johnston is an unincorporated territory of the United States administered by the United States Fish and Wildlife Service of the Department of the Interior as part of the Pacific Remote Islands Marine National Monument.
