Guantanamo Bay Base And Prison Get Ready For Hurricane Irma
Guantánamo prison staff evacuated from trailer-park housing camped out Tuesday, October 4, 2016, in the gym, far from the Detention Center Zone at the remote U.S. Navy base in Cuba, as shown in this Pentagon handout photo.
Sacramento Bee: Guantánamo base to ‘shelter in place’ for Cat-5 Irma
The U.S. Navy has decided not to evacuate family members and other non-essential staff from its remote outpost at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, concluding that the more than 5,000 residents can weather Category 5 Hurricane Irma as it grinds through the region, a spokesman said Tuesday.
“They will shelter in place as the storm passes just north of them,” Bill Dougherty, spokesman for the Pentagon’s Navy Region Southeast Region reported Tuesday morning.
The spokesman for the 1,500-staff detention center declined to say whether the prison’s temporary troops — mostly National Guard soldiers on nine-month tours of duty, without family — would remain in trailer-park style Containerized Housing Units, or CHUs, or would be evacuating to cots in the base gym, as usual.
Nor would the prison respond to questions of whether it would relocate some or all of its 41 war on terror captives. In the past the military moved specially segregated detainees from the flimsy Camp Echo to more secure cellblocks. One of them, Saudi Ahmad al Darbi, was to face a sentencing hearing this week as an admitted al-Qaida terrorist as part of a plea agreement to return him to his homeland in exchange for testimony against other captives.
