Price Barracks is a military installation located just north of Philip S. W. Goldson International Airport which is located in Ladyville some 8 miles to the north west of Belize City. It is the main base of the Belize Defence Force. ==History== The barracks has its origins in the British Honduras Garrison which had been established in British Honduras in the 1960s. In March 1972 the capacity of the garrison was doubled from facilities for 275 troops to 550 troops as a result of a threat from Guatemala. A significant deployment to the barracks, then known as Airport Camp, was undertaken by the Queen's Regiment in Spring 1976.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Queen's Regiment )〕 Following the independence of the country as Belize in September 1981 the camp was renamed Price Barracks after George Cadle Price, a former Prime Minister of the country, and it became the main base of the Belize Defence Force.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Contacts )〕 The UK Government established the British Army Training Support Unit Belize ('BATSUB') based on Price Barracks as its main international facility for jungle training in 1994 but then announced the closure of that activity in December 2010. The British Army continues to use the barracks as a training base for jungle warfare but on a much reduced scale.
