Congressman Bill Huizenga (R-Mi) recently led a letter to Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth in support of the development of a future Eastern Continental United States Interceptor Site (CIS) at Fort Custer Training Center, located in Augusta, Michigan. From world-class training grounds to a well-established military community, Michigan is well poised to take on a greater role in contributing to our national defense. The letter concludes urging Secretary Hegseth to fully and appropriately consider Fort Custer as the future home of America’s most consequential mission.
“There is a long history of support for Fort Custer from Michigan Delegation Members,” said Congressman Bill Huizenga. “Since 1917, Fort Custer has played an integral part in training our Armed Forces for vital national security missions. Now, as the warfighter landscape continues to needs. Fort Custer remains uniquely capable of meeting our nation’s unmet homeland defense.
Joining Congressman Huizenga on this effort are U.S. Representatives Tim Walberg, John Moolenaar, and Tom Barrett.
