NAVAL SUPPORT FACILITY REDZIKOWO, Poland (Sept. 29, 2019) – A six-member U.S. congressional delegation led by Rep. John Garamendi (D-Calif.), center, visited Naval Support Facility (NSF) Redzikowo and the Aegis Ashore Missile Defense System (AAMDS) site in Redzikowo on Sept. 29, 2019. Capt. Jon Grant, left, NSF Redzikowo’s commanding officer, and Cmdr. Joshua Lewis, commander of the AAMDS, hosted the bipartisan delegation for a walking tour through the multipurpose facility and operations center, which are still under construction but nearing the final finishing stages. The purpose of the delegation’s visit was to learn more about the Aegis Ashore mission and gain a better understanding about the partnerships with the surrounding community and how Sailors like being stationed in Poland. Once construction is completed, the Aegis Ashore site in Poland will expand a defensive capability that protects NATO European territories, populations and forces against ballistic missiles launched from outside the Euro-Atlantic region.
