VAFB is also home to the Ronald W. Reagan Missile Defense Site which has operational batteries of the Ground-based Midcourse Defense (GMD) System. This system is also deployed (operational) in Alaska. Primary mission at this point (since 2007) is to defend against Nork ICBMs (limited).

I thought it was but didn't say so because I wasn't positive. I know a number of "target" missiles later destroyed by our anti-missile defenses in the South Pacific have been launched from there.

I don't like the idea of NK and Al Quaeda spies being able to access that area as "beach-goers." It's a beautiful area and locals will squawk about it but screw 'em if they can't take a joke.
