" The base was comprised of two dugouts and a plastic barrel dug into the ground that was used to store ammunition."

It's amazing what qualifies as a "base".

My guess is a little difficulty in translation. They were probably looking for a word like cache.

Yessoufou sparked a security review at the naval base as he managed to get past both Royal and US Navy security to get on board the visiting nuclear-powered warship. He was able to walk around for two hours unhindered before his presence was realised and he was arrested and detained initially under the Terrorism Act 2000. Now that's shamefull. Who's in command of that ship? Hopefully not any longer.
