Guantanamo Bay
Guantanamo Bay is located in Guantánamo Province at the south-eastern end of Cuba ({{coor dm|19|54|N|75|9|W|}}). A United States Naval base at Guantanamo Bay hosts a detainment camp for prisoners of war collected from both Afghanistan and Iraq.
Fictional representations of Guantanamo
- The movie A Few Good Men (1992) depicts a legal trial concerning an incident that took place in Guantanamo Bay.
- Guantanamo Bay was featured in Bad Boys II (2003).
- Guantanamo Bay was mentioned in the James Bond movie GoldenEye (1995), which was, however, shot in Puerto Rico.
- The base is frequently referenced in the TV series JAG, and its spin-off series NCIS.
- The animated series American Dad! features a real-estate agent being sent to Guantanamo Bay by the Government.
- In an episode of the animated series The Simpsons that aired on May 16, 2004 the Simpsons are imprisoned on an island prison for violating the "government knows best act." The island ends up being Alcatraz, but there are several implied parallels with Guantanamo's use as a detainment center.
