Tugboats tow the decommissioned U.S. military missile-tracking Gen. Hoyt S. Vandenberg Tuesday, May 26, out of the harbor in Key West. The 523-foot-long ship, that once tracked space launches off Cape Canaveral, and also monitored Soviet missile launches during the Cold War, is scheduled be scuttled off Key West on May 27, to become an artificial reef in the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary.
