This topic is in conjunction with the final Fiji Bone Report by Martin Moleski. Martin describes in the report as that of Gallagher finding parts of a shoe, a sextant, and corks on brass chains. I'm really curious to know what the corks on brass chains were used for during that time period.
On May 15, TIGHAR sent two of its members to Suva, Fiji, to continue the search for the remains of a human skeleton, a sextant box, parts of a man’s shoe, parts of a woman’s shoe, and corks on brass chains that had been collected by Gerald B. Gallagher on Gardner Island (now known as Nikumaroro) in 1940 and then sent to Suva for analysis in 1941.
