Ft. Detrick, Maryland

The claim: Biological warfare center for the NWO, located in Frederick.

What it really is: Until 1969 this army base hosted the American biological weapons program, but now it host most of the United States biological defense program.

Ft. Hood (Killeen), Texas

The claim: Newly built concentration camp, with towers, barbed wire etc., just like the one featured in the movie Amerika. Mock city for NWO shock- force training. Some footage of this area was used in "Waco: A New Revelation"

What it really is: Fort Hood is one of the largest Army bases in the country. There are almost 89,000 personal there, and because there are so many people there, the base is going to look like a city, and there are going to be places there that will be off limits and have barbed wire and even guard towers around them to keep people out, not in.

The base itself has been the site of several anti-war protests as well dating back to the Vietnam War. Near the base is a coffee shop called the Under The Hood Café which has become a meeting place for anti-war activists.

White Sands Missile Range, New Mexico

The claim: Currently being used as a storage facility for United Nations vehicles and equipment. Observers have seen this material brought in on the Whitesands rail spur in Oro Grande New Mexico about thirty miles from the Texas, New Mexico Border.

What it really is: White Sands Missile Range is the largest military base in the United States and is used as the military's and NASA's primary rocket range, and is the site for the Orion Project Launch Abort Flight Test Complex. Several areas there are also National Historic Landmarks and Sites, thus open to the public.

So far there is no evidence at all to confirm that any vehicles or equipment used by the United Nations is being stored there, and these claims go back at least as far as 1999 from what I have found. In fact it's the exact same claim, word by word.

Also, Oro Grande (spelled Orogrande) does not have any rail going through it, and is very small (it has only around 50 people).

Holloman AFB (Alomogordo), New Mexico

The claim: Home of the German Luftwaffe in Amerika; major UN base. New facility being built on this base, according to recent visitors. Many former USAF buildings have been torn down by the busy and rapidly growing German military force located here.

What it really is: The claim about the German Luftwaffe being there is in fact true, and they do have their own training tactical center (which was established in May 1996) but the Luftwaffe uses the space as a training facility only. This information is publicly known. There are about 600 German personnel there as of 2007, but these numbers can either increase to as much as 900, or decrease, depending on the actual training needs.

While NATO allies have been offered to use the base for training, the UN has not, and there is UN troop presence there at all.

It wouldn't surprise me if many of the buildings have been torn down and replaced, as the base has been around since World War 2, and many old buildings from that era tend to need to be replaced from time to time, plus many of the most modern and high tech air craft of the air force are flown out from there, and thus there is a need for modern and high tech buildings to support these aircraft, and in many cases it is just more cost effective to replace rather then upgrade these building (sometimes it's the only thing that can be done).

Ft. Bliss, New Mexico

The claim: This base actually straddles Texas state line. Just south of Alomogordo, Ft. Bliss has thousands of acres for people who refuse to go with the "New Order".

What it really is: The base does not straddle the Texas state line. In fact a large part of the base is in Texas.

The base is in fact the second largest army base in the United States, as well as one of the oldest. Despite it's sheer size and location, it doesn't mean that it will be used for some sort of interment camp, and of course the claim never says there is an actual prison camp there. There are also lots of civilian activities that can be done there as well.

Ft. Dix / McGuire AFB, New Jersey

The claim: Possible deportation point for detainees. Lots of pictures taken of detention compounds and posted on Internet, this camp is well-known. Facility is now complete and ready for occupancy.

What it really is: It's actually called the Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst, which was formed in October 1, 2009 as a result of a merger of the United States Air Force's McGuire Air Force Base, the United States Army's Fort Dix and the United States Navy's Naval Air Engineering Station Lakehurst.

Despite the claims of there being numerous photos of a prison camp there, I can't find any of them. In fact satellite photos of the base doesn't show anything at all that resembles a prison or a prison camp.

Edit: Fort Dix does have a Federal prison there, but it's minimum security, and it only holds 4250 prisoners.

Thanks to AutisticSkeptic for the info.

Nellis Air Force Range, Nevada

The claim: Northwest from Las Vegas on Route 95. Nellis AFB is just north of Las Vegas on Hwy 604.

What it really is: First, it's no longer called the Nellis Air Force Range, it's called the Nevada Test and Training Range.

The site was also used for nuclear tests between 1957 to 1963 and some areas are still contaminated from those tests. The site is still used to as test and hold simulate air warfare exercises there every year with NATO called RED FLAG, as well as Green Flag, a warfare exercise emphasizing the electronic aspects of airborne warfare.

It should be noted that Area 51 is there, and because of the top secret level security that goes on there and myths that go along with Area 51 it may have lead some conspiracy theorists to believe that this would be a natural place to put a interment camp.

Winnemucca, Nevada

The claim: Battle Mountain area - at the base of the mountains.

What it really is: The only thing nearby that could even come close to probably being mistaken for a FEMA camp, and in the general location where one is claimed to be is the Dyno Noble Explosives Plant, which makes explosives for commercial use.

Wells, Nevada

The claim: Camp is located in the O'Niel basin area, 40 miles north of Wells, past Thousand Springs, west off Hwy 93 for 25 miles.

What it really is: I've looked on Google maps in satellite view, and other then a few roads and a near by bed and breakfast place, I can find nothing there what so ever. There is no prison camp or anything of the like located there. It's just barren land.

Camp Perry, Ohio

The claim: Site renovated; once used as a POW camp to house German and Italian prisoners of WWII. Some tar paper covered huts built for housing these prisoners are still standing. Recently, the construction of multiple 200-man barracks have replaced most of the huts.

What it really is: Built in 1909, Camp Perry is a National Guard training base, and it was once used to house German and Italian POWs during World War 2. After the war prisoner quarters were converted back to be used by transient personnel who were at Camp Perry for training.

Many of Camp Perry's original structures are still there, so renovating these buildings are necessary. Also, while some structures would need to be renovated, others (such as barracks) sometimes need to be replaced, so considering the age of this place, construction of new barracks are not unusual, especially if any of them were damaged in the June 24, 1998 tornado that did damage several buildings there.

It should also be noted that Camp Perry is the host of the Civilian Marksmanship Program and the NRA-sponsored National Rifle Matches, and has so since 1907.

Seems pretty odd that a place that is suppose to be a FEMA camp hosts an NRA event every year...

Minot AFB, North Dakota

The claim: Home of UN air group. More data needed on facility.

What it really is: Minot Air Force Base, located in Ward County, North Dakota, is the home of the the 5th Bomb Wing and 91st Missile Wing, both of which are part of the Air Force Global Strike Command.

The base also only has about a little over 5,500 people on it as of 2010 (which is a decline of 27.3% from 2000) not all of which are military personal. Many families of military personal live on the base as well, including children. There are even two elementary schools and one middle school located on the base.

There is no UN air group there, nor has there ever been one. If there was one there it would very hard to hide it due to the large amount of civilians there, who's silence is never guaranteed. Also the fact that more data is needed kind of lets me know that whomever claimed this is probably making this up, or has seriously misidentified what they saw.

What is a FEMA Camp?

A FEMA camp is a place that many conspiracy theorists (particularly those who consider themselves to be part of the Sovereign Citizen/Patriot Movement) believe that the US government is plans to send millions of American citizens to in the near future. Here is thing: these places do not exist.

Most of these places are misidentified (intentionally or unintentionally) and has no prisons at all located on them. A few of these places are real prisons, but are run by the federal or state prison systems, and not by FEMA.

Regardless of what they are, and regardless of how much a person might believe they are real, the fact is that FEMA camps simply are not real.

In this blog I intend to debunk these places and to show people that there is literally nothing to fear.

P.S. A special thanks to Jeffery Newell for providing me with many locations of alleged FEMA camps.
