Minuteman III
Stage three of the Minuteman III ICBM involved placing the re-entry vehicle assembly atop the other stages, about 44 feet in the air. The re-entry vehicle is the silver section, which was fabricated by ATK Launch Systems Corp., whom donated their services to fabricate, paint and restore sections of the missile display. The missile is excess Air Force property and completely de-militarized. Assembly took the 21st Civil Engineer Squadron three days to complete in May. (U.S. Air Force photo by Gail Whalen)
