Wake island....

..does anyone recall if this little dot in the middle of the ocean was ever done in CFS2? I know Midway and all the others are, but what about this little spot. Also I came across something that spoke of the Wake Island campaign, as it relates to its' defense and VMF214 where do I find this. I think Morton did the repaint of the F4F-3 for VMF 214. Any steerage appreciated.
 
The Battle for Wake Island by Frank Pond

I found this for the campaign;

It's third from last at the bottom of the page.

Also a few missions;

A Tomb in the Clouds 1, 2 and 3

*Missions 4 and 5 are on the next page however not sure if they involve Wake Island

Another mission;

Attack the Akagi moored at Wake Island, By Ghost Pony

Fibber,
I also did the Four remaining Wildcats. They're for the OH Wildcat F4F-3. I think I have a Wake campaign somewhere, I'll have to look.

...I wasn't meaning to slight you but only pointing out that I found Mortons' rendition of the LAST 214 plane flying when I was searching for a updated Wake. I have yours and fly them often when I need a F4F3.
 
Fibber,
No slight taken. Just pointing out an alternative to the Donationware Wildcat. Guess it didn't come out right. Sorry about that. I wasn't trying to toot my own horn.

Hi Guys,

Don't forger the BIG-E missions by the AF Midway Team.
There are a couple of Wake related missions.
