Bagi veteran Perang Dunia II, Sail Morotai merupakan nostalgia saat bersejarah 68 tahun lalu, tepatnya 15 September 1944, ketika mereka tergabung dalam Pasukan Sekutu dibawah pimpinan Komandan Perang Jenderal Douglas MacArthur mengusir serdadu Jepang yang tersisa di Morotai.
Walaupun pasukan Jepang sudah terlebih dahulu mendarat di Morotai dan membangun pangkalan udaranya,mereka meninggalkan pangkalan tersebut untuk mendirikan pangkalan di Pulau Halmahera, hanya menyisakan batalyon kecil di Morotai.
For World War II veterans, Sai Morotai was such a nostalgic moment 68 years ago. It was precisely on September 15, 1944 when they joined the Allied Forces under General Douglas MacArthur to chase away the remaining Japanese soldiers in Morotai.
Although the Japanese soldiers had already landed at Morotai and built its air base, they left the air base and built another air base in Halmahera, leaving only a small troop in Halamahera.
