He claims Croughton is the “focal point for the US military’s communications within Europe” and includes “two high security SIGINT enclaves”. Intelligence centreĪlan Turnbull has conducted extensive research into Croughton and other US bases in the UK. It’s probably one of the most important US intelligence-gathering centres outside of the US.īut not everything for the base has seemingly gone to plan given reports that a proposed expansion that would have seen it accommodate an extra 1,200 personnel has been reversed. But ‘RAF Croughton’ is populated by over a thousand US personnel. The military base where Jonathan and Anne Sacoolas were stationed is described as an RAF base. Sacoolas fled to the US and claimed diplomatic immunity.
Anne Sacoolas has been charged with causing death by dangerous driving after allegedly hitting Dunn whilst on the wrong side of the road.
Both Anne and Jonathan Sacoolas are reported to have worked for the CIA. Dunn was riding a motorcycle not far from the military base in Northamptonshire where Sacoolas’s US husband Jonathan was stationed. The UK request for the extradition of US citizen Anne Sacoolas on criminal charges following the death of teenager Harry Dunn, appears to be getting nowhere.
