US Navy Building in the shape of a Swastika?
Bing Maps ^ | 7-13-12

Posted on 07/13/2012 1:16:38 PM PDT by foundedonpurpose

I saw a picture of this on my wife's Facebook page and thought it was BS. So I checked it out with a birds eye view of the island, via bing. WTF is wrong with this picture? Outside of everything that is good!

Well... it is a very stable design.

What’s it look like from the ground ?

The story has been around for at least a year.

I don’t have any issues with it. Seems to be a shape that maximizes the usable space.

Why would you post about a picture without posting the picture? Isn't that nuts?

Old story, it wasn’t intentional and the Navy is changing it just to please the interwebs.

This isn’t fake. It happened, it’s an older building and the design has been addressed since people nothing better to do complained about it.

Have you ever seen a map of Florida?!?!

Children have access to maps and might see that. The shape of Florida is just going to have to be changed.

I’m trying! If some one knows how to get the birds eye photo up, that would be great. My skills are not in the world of computers.

It’s on the north end of the naval amphibious base on the strip leading to Coranado. It takes up the block between Bougainville Rd and Tulagi Rd, Eniwetok Rd and Roi Rd...

Old News..........

 

The Swastika Building

Thursday, 27th September 2007 by

Thanks to the power of Google Earth and the internet the US Navy have decided to spend as much as $600,000 on major alterations to a perfectly good barracks. The reason for the spend is that, when viewed on Google Earth, the building complex resembles a swastika.

You’ll probably get an email saying Barbara Walters is hosting a special honoring Jane Fonda as “Woman of the Year”. That one’s about 10 years old.

I saw this on the History Channel.

NAZI Wonder Weapons of 1987

They had this NAZI scientist on who said "If only we had had more time!"
