The Crane Regional Defense Group (CRDG), a subcommittee of the White River Military Coordination Alliance, was established in 2020 as a grassroots effort to expand community support and advocate for Crane at the local and federal level.
CRDG is a citizen-led committee established through partnerships between chambers of commerce, county councils, financial institutions and local business leaders.
About
About
NSA Crane and Lake Glendora Test Facility play a vital role in equipping our men and women in uniform and serve as an important economic driver for our region. The communities that neighbor Crane have a responsibility to ensure that we create the best environment for Crane to continue its important work.
Supporting NWS Crane
Mission
Our mission is to elevate the strategic value of Crane by supporting local outreach and legislative initiatives that protect military installations in the region and state, and leverage the installation’s potential to bring economic growth to Southern Indiana. We seek to expand southern Indiana's defense innovation ecosystem through defense-related outreach and legislative initiatives that enhance military missions in the region.
