A Buddhist monk who has been involved in anti-Trident nuclear submarine activities outside the Bangor, Wash., submarine base has been ordered by immigration officials to leave the United States within 30 days. Since 1982, the monk, identified as the Rev. Gyotoku, has lived on Bainbridge Island where Buddhist monks and peace activists have started building a Peace Pagoda or religious center, near the submarine base for the Pacific Fleet, about 25 miles west of Seattle. Gyotoku, a Japanese citizen, was detained last week by U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service officials after returning from Japan.
