I've read a few times regarding the fort and the oasis, i.e. they are/were adjacent to each other. There is also something on the web that the hospital was adjacent to the oasis, to the west of the town, but the hospital became destroyed in the 2nd Gulf War ..... just a thought but could the fort have become a hospital?
P.S. On GE, to the west of the town, just below the most southerly point of highway 10, in the large white, but lesser than white, area, there is a shape, could it be an aircraft on the ground?
