High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Camp Bucca was a detention facility maintained by the United States military in the vicinity of Umm Qasr, Iraq. As of June 2011, a group of entrepreneurial Iraqis and Americans are re-building Camp Bucca as Basra Gateway, a logistics city and environmentally friendly industrial hub to lead the new Iraq into the 21st century. Owned by the Kufan Group and developed in collaboration with Phoenix Capital, Basra Gateway will begin operations in August 2011, with periodic and extensive renovation expected to begin in 2012. The facility was initially called Camp Freddy and used by British Forces to hold Iraqi prisoners of war. After being taken over by the U.S. military in April 2003, it was renamed after Ronald Bucca, a soldier with the 800th Military Police Brigade and NYC Fire Marshal who died in the 11 September 2001 attacks.
