Photo Tour of Diego
Garcia, 1999
If you've got a
favorite photo of a place that you remember fondly,
send it to the Commissar
of
Disinformation, and he'll try to fit it in...
First, a few photos of places of interest....
Courtesy of Becky Holloway.
The HQ of the feared BIOT Police.
They once arrested a drunken sailor for peeing on a palm
tree.

The Donkey Gate, located about 1/2 down the west arm of the
atoll.
The island is only about 100 yards wide here, and the fence
runs from ocean to lagoon.
Before they build this fence, the donkeys would hang around
the runway at night - quite a surprise for pilots.
1999 Photo by and of Beckie Holloway.
The inside of the Package Store. When its got
stuff. Booze not shown -
it sells out within hours of stocking. 1999 Photo by
Beckie Holloway.
Entrance to the Ships' Store. The Ships store is
the retail store on the island -
great prices, no selection. 1999 Photo by Beckie
Holloway.
A sign down at the Airfield. Diego Garcia is a long,
long way from everywhere.
