Well, That Looks Stupid in Retrospect

Are you kidding me?

Russian ships docked at what was once a secret Norwegian naval base in the Arctic have prompted concern from the NATO country's former top military leaders, anxious about its resurgent eastern neighbour roaming nearby.

Russian civilian ships spent the winter docked inside (yes, inside--it was dug out of a mountain) Norway's expensive former Olavsvern Naval Base near Tromso in northern Norway.

I'm sure the crews didn't report every detail of the base to Putin.

Norway has no plans to correct this mistake.
