Photos Show Flood Damage at US Military Base on the Marshall Islands


  • Weather-driven waves flooded an area of the Kwajalein Atoll in the Marshall Islands on Saturday.
  • A US Army-Garrison base on the island of Roi-Namur was inundated with water.
  • Viral video of the flood shows the doors of a local bar being broken down by the sudden swells.

A storm surge on Saturday sent rogue waves in the south Pacific, swamping a US Army-Garrison facility on the Marshall Islands.

US Army Garrison-Kwajalein Atoll and the US Space and Missile Defense Command’s Ronald Reagan Ballistic Missile Defense Test Site operate on Roi-Namur island, the second-largest island of the Kwajalein Atoll, about 2,000 miles from Hawaii.

Photos show the extensive damage to the base’s facilities, home to about 120 people, by the sudden swells.
