Watertown Daily News:
FORT DRUM — A new letter from Rep. Elise M. Stefanik and other congressional lawmakers from New York continued the push for the military to pick Fort Drum as the preferred location of a new East Coast missile site.
The letter to Lt. Gen. Samuel A. Greaves, director of the Missile Defense Agency, said the post’s infrastructure and support system made it “an ideal location” for the placement.
“Fort Drum’s airfield, railroad line on post and major highway near the installation can cheaply and easily handle transportation and utility needs during and after construction,” the letter said.
