History
On 16 May 1964, Defense Secretary Robert McNamara directed the accelerated phaseout of the Atlas (rocket family) and Titan I ICBMs. Mock missile attacks, site emergencies and simulated equipment failures also keep the Canadian and American crew busy. There were six wild-cat work stoppages; only one caused an appreciable delay. On 1 February 1963, SAC redesignated the 4126th as the 456th Strategic Aerospace Wing. Beale is currently home of the 9th Reconnaissance Wing (9 RW) and is also considered by many to be one of the show places of the United States Air Force.
