I remember one of these being taken over in the sixties by one Roy Bates, who
declared it the Principality of Sealand, and himself prince. It was a pirate
radio station back then but I think he's still getting away with it as it was
outside British territorial waters when he took it over.

Bunker: a fortification set mostly below the surface of the ground with
overhead protection provided by logs and earth or by concrete and fitted with
openings through which guns may be fired. ......and that's a definition from
Webster's, an =American= dictionary, f_d.
