U.S. Pacific island (4)

I believe the answer is:

guam

(Other definitions for guam that I've seen before include "Island in the West Pacific" , "NW Pacific island with large US base" , "North Pacific island, base for the US navy and air force" , "place in the Marianas" , "Largest of the Mariana Islands" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times.
