Camp Delta

Camp Delta is located in Guantanamo Bay U.S. naval base. It is a permanent 612-unit detention center. Construction of the camp began on February 27, 2002 with workers from Kellog, Brown and Root, a subsidiary of Halliburton, Navy Seabees, and Marine Engineers. It finished approximately in the middle of April. The U.S. army military police make up the security force present at Camp Delta.

Camp Delta itself is comprised of 6 detention camps; 1,2,3,4,5,6(in progress) Echo, and Iguana. Camp 3 is the maximum security camp, when a prisoner first arrives, he is sent here. When a detainee shows co-operation with the staff, he is moved to Camp 2. With more co-operation, the prisoner is moved to Camp 1. Finally, when a prisoner shows no security risk and is actively co-operating with the interrogation process, he is moved to Camp 4. Camp Echo is a detention center where pre-commissions are held. The detainees here have access to lawyers and hold private conversations with them. Camp Iguana is a low-security detention center for juvenile detainees aged 13-15. [1]
