The Washington Foreign Press Center, in coordination with posts in Warsaw and Prague, arranged a reporting trip to the MDA base at Fort Greely Alaska.  Reporters from the Czech News Agency, Czech Radio, Hospodarske Noviny and the Polish Press Agency also were briefed by BG Keith McNamara at MDA headquarters.  After the windshield tour of the GMD Middile Defense Complex, the reporters went to Delta Junction and met with the mayor's office to get the community perspective.
