I believe the answer is:

okinawa

(Other definitions for okinawa that I've seen before include "Region of southern Japan, scene of fierce fighting in 1945" , "American victory, June 1945" , "coral island" , "Pacific island" , "Japanese island captured by US in June nineteen forty five" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
