I’m surprised the UFO ‘truth’ brigade hasn’t got hold of this one. For the past 40 years the US naval amphibious base complex 320-325 at Conorado in southern California has been advertising its existence to alien spacecraft in the form of a huge swastika. Now the combination of Google Earth and observant elements of the blogging community has forced the navy into an abrupt cover up.

Next year the Conorado base buildings will be subject to a $600,000 camouflage operation involving ‘landscaping, rock structures and solar panels’ to disguise their shape. A small sum for the US navy, but a giant leap for extraterrestrial anti-Nazism.
