Hilltop monument to Reagan being dedicated at Vandenberg AFB
By Associated Press
The Ronald W. Reagan Missile Defense Site will be formally dedicated on a hilltop at Vandenberg Air Force Base.
Thursday’s ceremony marks the 25th anniversary of Reagan’s historic speech on the development of a system to protect the United State from missile attacks.
Officials announced the Vandenberg missile defense facilities would be named after the late president during a ceremony last April attended former first lady Nancy Reagan.
The Reagan memorial overlooks the northern part of Vandenberg. A bust of the former president is on a pedestal at the viewing site.
