Last weekend a group of concerned citizens conducted a tour of US/Australia military facilities in WA such as the spy base near Geraldton, in order to raise awareness of the role these facilities play in US hegemony.

The trip coincided with a National Day of Action to ban nuclear weapons ahead of UN negotiations to develop a ban treaty.

Indymedia's Karun Cowper joined the group who travelled over the weekend to visit the US/Australia spy base.

On location, in close proximity of the base, he spoke to local veteran anti nuclear and peace activists Mia Pepper, Bilbo Taylor, Marcus Atkinson and K A.
