Community leaders gather for Minot Air Force Base tour

Posted: Jul 21 2023
Community leaders gathered last week for a Key Leader Minot Air Force Base Tour. Participants enjoyed a mission brief from Col Daniel Hoadley, 5th Bomb Wing Commander and Col Kenneth McGhee, 91st Missile Wing Commander. With Minot being the only dual-wing nuclear capable base in the Air Force hosting two legs of the nuclear triad, there is a reason they say ‘Only the Best Come North’.
 
The group also had the opportunity to view a B-52 up close and traveled to the Oscar-01 Missile Alert Facility.
 
The Minot Area Chamber EDC works to educate leadership at all levels as well as the public on the role Minot plays in nuclear deterrence and why protecting both missions is critically important to our national defense. With over a half billion-dollar economic impact in Minot every year and over half of our state’s military economic impact in North Dakota, supporting military is one of our five key pillars at the Chamber EDC.
