Camp Delta

Camp Delta

Camp Delta, situated at coord|19|54|09|N|75|05|57|W|region:CU_type:landmark, composed of detention camps 1, 2, 3, 4, and Camp Echo, is a permanent 612-unit detainment camp at Guantanamo Bay that replaced the temporary facilities of Camp X-Ray. It was built between February 27 and mid-April 2002 by Navy Seabees, Marine Engineers, and workers from Halliburton subsidiary Kellogg, Brown and Root.Fact|date=April 2008

Most of the security force are U.S. Army military police, and U.S. Navy Masters-at-Arms.

The camps have different amenities and levels of comfort. The assignment to the different parts of Camp Delta is determined by how much the prisoner cooperates with guards and interrogators, with the exception of newly arriving detainees who always go to maximum security in Camp 3. Thereafter, cooperative detainees are moved to Camp 2 and then Camp 1 as rewards for cooperation. When detainees cooperate and are thought to show no security risk they can be moved to the buildings of Camp 4, which have a shower and lavatory, plus four communal living rooms for 10 detainees each. In Camp 4, each detainnee has a bed and a locker. Camp 4 detainees may eat their meals together, instead of alone in their own cells as in the other camps, and Camp 4 detainees are set apart by their white jump suits, in contrast to the orange worn by detainees in other camps.
