International Shipping to Guam—What You Need to Know

Background Information on Guam

Guam is actually an unincorporated U.S. territory in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. It is only 210 square miles, with a population of fewer than 200,000 people. One of the main reasons the U.S. maintains a presence there is to have military personnel and equipment at Andersen Air Force Base. This location played an important role in the Vietnam War and still has about 7,000 U.S. troops living there at any given time according to an article from ABC News (an Australian news outlet).
