Missouri is home to more than 17,000 active-duty military personnel and several major defense installations, including Whiteman, Rosecrans, Fort Leonard Wood, the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency, and Missouri National Guard installations across the state. I look forward to supporting General Mattis’ confirmation, and working with him to address the challenges facing our military men and women and their families.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
