Answer:
the evidence is ambiguous

Step-by-step explanation:

What did troops find on Kwajalein that indicated that Louie and Phil could still be alive?

On October 6, Louie's army trunk arrives, but the family never opens It. In early 1944, America seizes Kwajalein, and someone finds the splinter of wood with Louie's name on It. Joe Deasy, the pilot of the Daisy Mae, realizes that Louie and Phil are still alive, although he has no clue where they might be. In early 1944, American troops take Kwajalein Island, finding evidence of Louie and Phil's possible survival. Still, the evidence is ambiguous, so the families are not notified.

Phil and Louie's families were not notified of the documents found on Kwajalien because the authorities believed that informing them of the documents could potentially cause harm to the individuals involved. Moreover, the documents were highly sensitive and confidential, and the authorities wanted to keep the content from being leaked to the public. Thus, they decided to keep the documents hidden from Phil and Louie's families for their protection
