Does anyone have a complete list of the ZIP codes of these islands?
There used to be military ZIP codes, which may not be in use anymore:
- Wake: 96518
- Midway: 96516
- Johnston: 96305
The new wildlife refuges seem to have new ZIP codes:
- Wake: 96898
- Midway: ?
- Johnston: 96850

[edit] Name
Does anyone know when the name "United States Minor Outlying Islands" was coined or introduced, presumably by the Bureau of the Census? Ratzer 20:04, 29 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Navassa dispute
Isn't Navassa Island also claimed by Haiti? If so, shouldn't this be noted on this page? --ScottMainwaring 15:08, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Source link 1
The link no longer works. Sparticuz 17:27, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Map
This Pacific Map is good, but I feel it needs to express some other American claims in the Pacific. For instance, the claim of the US to Washington and Fanning Atolls has not yet been dropped or ceded in any way, so why not add those islands on the map with disputed sovereignty asteriks? Also, can we get a map of the Caribbean with at least the three islands that are mentioned here? This is very nice. Reaganamerican 12:43, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
