WSJM:
The Fort Custer Training Center near Battle Creek will be the site of a military missile interceptor if Michigan’s congressional delegation has anything to say about it. Congressman Fred Upton tells WSJM News they’ve sent a letter to the director of the Missile Defense Agency calling for the base to be chosen.
“We’re anticipating hearing a final decision probably at some point early next year, first or second quarter next year,” Upton said. “This would be a big boost for our economy in Michigan here, obviously. $3 billion in construction. Nothing to sneeze at.”
