==Description==
Estimated to be located about a mile beyond the regular camp boundaries, the camp was described as a highly secret facility nicknamedreferred to as "Camp No" by a couple of Guantanamo's guards. When soldiers asked about it, they were told "No, it doesn't exist".

The guards who told Horton about it said that it looked as if it could hold eighty prisoners. Some areas looked like the interrogation centers in other parts of the main camp. They had seen non-uniformed personnel going to that area and speculated they were CIA. They suggest that the camp was used for secret interrogations, including the use of illegal [[interrogation#Interrogation techniques|interrogation techniques]], such as [[waterboarding]], commonly classified as torture.<ref name=Harpers2010-01-18/><ref name=AP2010-01-18/>
 
In an account published in ''Harper's'', guards attested they had seen three prisoners taken individually in the direction of Camp No by the vehicle they called the paddy wagon the night of June 9. The paddy wagon contained a cage large enough to hold one prisoner at a time. All three had been taken there by 8 pm.<ref name=Harpers2010-01-18/>
