In the middle of the Pacific sits Guam, a tiny island that has been a U.S. territory since 1898. The U.S. has a naval base and an air force base on the island and is in a strategic position to defend the mainland U.S. from any missile strikes coming from Asia.

关岛坐落于大西洋中央，这个小岛自从1898年就成为美国领土。美国在这座岛上有一座海军基地和一座空军基地，它是一处战略要点，用于防护从亚洲射向美国本土的导弹。

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un is particularly threatened by the U.S. military presence on the island and expressed his anger in July of 2017 when U.S. B-1 bombers took off from Guam and flew over South Korea as a show of force. While Jong Un and the regime practices launching their ballistic missiles, they are consistently reminded that the U.S. can reach their country by air and sea in a timely response.

美国在该岛的军事存在，特别威胁着朝鲜领导人。2017年7月，美国的B-1轰炸机从关岛起飞，飞过韩国进行武力展示，这件事就让他大发雷霆。当他及其政权发射弹道导弹时，关岛就会提醒他们，美国可以从空中和海上抵达他们的国家，做出及时的回应。
