Construction uncovers unexploded ordnance at Kaneohe Marine Corps Base

Kaneohe Marine Corps Base Hawaii personnel recovered unexploded ordnance that was discovered during routine construction work near the base’s main gate this morning.

MCBH spokesman Lt. Mark McDonough said an unknown object was discovered at about 9 a.m. Out of an abundance of caution, the base temporarily closed the main gate and cleared the area to ensure safety for all personnel.
