F.E. WARREN AIR FORCE BASE, Wyo. --

General officers from several allied nations visited F.E. Warren Air Force Base for a staff delegation tour, July 21, 2022.

During the visit, personnel toured a missile alert and a launch facility to showcase the nuclear defense capabilities and mission at F.E. Warren, as well as an opportunity to meet the Airmen tasked with carrying out the Mighty Ninety mission.

The generals represented nations including Australia, the United Kingdom, Denmark and Germany.

"Hosting military representatives from partner nations like the U.K., Australia, Germany and Denmark, gives us the opportunity to reassure our allies that we have the watch," said Col. Catherine Barrington, commander of the 90th Missile Wing. "It's a great chance to show our allies what the Mighty Ninety does and what we're responsible for."

Staff delegation visits like this allow for the strengthening of ties between the U.S. and allied nations.
