But theyre filled with American flags, U.S. post offices, and Little League baseball games. How did these territories come to be part of the United States What are they like And why arent they statesWhen Doug Mack realized just how little he knew about the territories, he set off on a globe-hopping quest covering more than 30,000 miles to see them all.

He tours Guam with members of a military veterans motorcycle club, who offer personal stories about the territorys role in World War II and its present-day importance for the American military.
