It is the largest U.S. military base in Africa. Camp Lemonnier was originally established for the French Foreign Legion. The base was leased by Djibouti to the United States in 2002, along with the right to use the neighboring airport and port facilities. The base supports CIA and DOD anti-terrorist operations in Africa and the Middle East.<br /><br /> <br />
