During WWII Midway was an important stopover for submarines that were active in the North Pacific. I don't know much about the operation but there are still some remnants of the infrastructure that was used to dock and provide electric power while the boats were here. The pictures show the pier where they tied up, part of the mooring setup and the power plant building where electricity was produced for the subs to plug into while visiting Midway.
