Isn’t the boat name “Conception” weird? I mean, guess it could refer to non-sex things but it could have held more people. And like folks are pointing out, only the crew survived.
But check this out. The boat was stolen in 2005 and parked at a top secret base:

That’s odd.

The boat that only rescued the crew: "The Grape Escape" Edited* I thought it was called "The Great Escape"

Apparently the way the boat is built. The sleeping quarters are down below because there is supposedly less movement from being in a boat on water and the crew's quarters are above to be close to the bridge. I hope it wasn't a boatload of missing kids.

Vandenberg isn't a top secret base, it simply is a base.
Damn the fluff.

Technically he is correct in saying its a "Top Secret" base, in that you need that clearance to operate there in its main capacity. It's main capacity is a missile launch and testing, space operations and tracking base. "Simply a base", it is not.
Edit: might add I did 24 years USAF (still hold Secret clearance) and have been there, so this is coming from a point of expertise, not conjecture.

My friend is one who wants to acheive their goal of landing on all the Chanel islands, this island being one of them. They finally received approval to do so and have to undergo a DOD background check. Once they pass, they will be able to visit the island under a "community effort" (picking up trash), under guard watch and transported to and from the island by military personnel (helicopter).

I'm pretty sure you don't know what an anagram is, if you're making that connection.
