He likened it to the landing of the Americans during the second world war when suddenly, as if the sea had changed colour, the island was swamped by white men in military uniforms. Some 67 years later, like hundreds of other residents of Funafuti , Fakasoa Eutelu dropped everything he was doing to watch as the New Zealand navy unloaded the amphibious support vessel Canterbury at the tiny port of Tuvalu's capital.
