NSA Hawaii
Recently I’ve heard Edward Snowden talk about his working at the NSA in Hawaii as being “under a pineapple field.” CBS News recently ran a segment on that NSA listening post on Oahu.
Not a whole lot of actual information. “We’re in office building, in a pineapple field, on Oahu….” And part of it is underground—we see a tunnel. We didn’t get to see any pineapples, though.

Snowden first worked at the NSA facility in the Kunia tunnel, which is in an underground bunker complex from WWII, apparently located under a pineapple field.
In 2013, the NSA cryptologic center moved to a brand new building above ground, which is the one seen in the CBS report. It seems that Snowden only worked in this new building for the two months of his last job at NSA.
