TUCSON - How secure are U.S. military installations? You would think the answer is: very.
But, as the News 4 Tucson Investigators uncovered, one installation, right here in southern Arizona, continues to face potential outside security risks, and the problem doesn't seem to be getting any better.
Fort Huachuca is only 15 miles north of our state's border with Mexico.
The Army post covers more than 73,000 acres. In many parts, the terrain is steep and rugged.
Much of the work that goes on at Fort Huachuca is classified but, as the News 4 Tucson Investigators learned, keeping people who don't belong there out, proves to be a difficult mission.

Maybe placing a few hundred mines around the place will slow things down. A few big “BOOMS” going off might discourage a few.
Let an American citizen get caught on that base where he shouldn't be and see what happens to them. Probably won't see them at all for a very long time.
They are not immigrants, they are illegal aliens. Immigrants follow the law.
Why is this not national news? Fox included.
They have some decent looking talent, but ZERO news capability.
I was stationed there many years ago... I like the skies there at night just beautiful...
Huachuca is one of the primary training centers for interrogation techniques, data collection and covert operations. Intelligence personnel trained at the Arizona base are stationed in Iraq, Afghanistan and Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.
Amnesty International and other human rights groups criticize U.S. policies related to prisoner interrogations and question whether certain techniques and how they are taught at Huachucha amount to or lead to torture.
Jumana Musa, advocacy director for Amnesty International USA, said interrogation techniques taught at Huachuca may include water boarding, sleep deprivation, stress positions, phobia exploitation and sexual humiliation of suspects.
Musa said Amnesty also is concerned about the oversight and training of private contractors that do intelligence work at the Arizona base.
Perhaps they need to get “subjects” to train on...:^)
