Former launch officers from the 566th Strategic Missile Squadron, 389th Strategic Missile Wing, held a 50th reunion in early August. In 1960, F.E. Warren AFB was the first operational ICBM base in the U.S. The 566th SMS was originally designated the 549th SMS. The veterans toured F.E. Warren AFB and are shown here visiting the former 566th Atlas E missile site near Greeley, CO.
