GUANTANAMO BAY, CUBA – Cuzco III, is complete!
This past weekend troopers helped move in furniture in the newly constructed trailer barracks. On Monday, the first group of Troopers to move in began calling Cuzco III home with another group to move in on Wednesday.
Troopers who were initially housed in Camp Justice, otherwise known by Troopers as 'tent city' or housed in Camp Buckley, are now in their own individual rooms in the trailers that make up Cuzco III.
"The new Cuzco trailers will house 192 personnel," said Army Sgt. Maj. Matt Aragon, Headquarters and Headquarters Company commandant.
Each trailer will house two troopers, each having his or her own room with a common bathroom. Having ones' own room gives troopers more privacy but troopers need to remember they still have neighbors to be respectful of.
"Quiet hours are from 2200-0600 everyday, even on weekends," cautions Aragon.
The trailers all have new furniture and appliances in them consisting of: a bed, mattress, cabinet with drawers, closet, night stand, microwave and small fridge.
"We want to try our best to keep everything nice and clean, bascially keep things squared away," said Aragon.
Although the trailers themselves are complete there are more plans to improve the Cuzco living quarters.
Building will soon begin on three outdoor pavilions that will have water, electricity and ceiling fans. The pavilions will be a great place to gather and relax.
For residents of Cuzco parking has been an issue with the construction of the new barracks.
Recently Cuzco residents lost a considerable amount of parking with the merging of Cuzco II and III, making much of the current parking in a dirt lot north of Cuzco.
The housing department is seeking to gravel the north lots but due to other projects, it might not happen right away. New parking will be established near the end of Cuzco III, near Sherman Avenue.
