sinan Posted December 29, 2004 Share Posted December 29, 2004 Diego Garcia, a US navy base located in the heart of the Indian Ocean which houses over 3000 military and civillian contractors. It is also a base for many military aircraft including the b-52 bomber Seeing that the wave reached all the way to somalia and that some maldives islands (which are close to diego garcia) have been completely submerged , it is likely that the base will have been seriously damaged or even completely sub-merged. what do you guys think?

Rob2687 Posted December 29, 2004 Share Posted December 29, 2004 nah..the quake was triggered by a nuclear explosive set by the US government to direct attention from the middle east and they evacuated the base just before it happened :shifty: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob2687 Posted December 30, 2004 Share Posted December 30, 2004 Of course I was joking. If anyone is mad enough to cause such a disaster, then I have truly lost all faith in humanity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJCrowley Esq Posted January 5, 2005 Share Posted January 5, 2005 "Civilian contractors" is a great new term. Back when I was a youngster, they used to be called "Mercenaries". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leedogg Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 read that last link: "Diego Garcia is located to the west of Chagos Trench, which runs north and south. The depth of the Chagos Trench and grade to the shores does not allow for tsunamis to build before passing the atoll. The result of the earthquake was seen as a tidal surge estimated at six feet." So basically after passing over the trench and atoll the tsunami became a 6 feet wave... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjgore Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 There's something strange about that photograph. The rectangular area with all the planes parked on it looks slightly odd, in a photoshopped kind of way. The rest of the photo looks normal though. Oh look... some more planes have arrived...
