Cleland praised Wheeler, a

and the state for proceeding
with financing and construction
on the building without waiting
for federal help.
If the state had waited for that
help, the building probably
would not have been built, Cle
land said.
Nunn called Wheeler a “vet-
New Kle members
erans’ veteran” and praised
t Georgians who have served
their country in the armed
J forces. The ceremony was con
i ducted on Armed Forces Day.
The building on the grounds of
the Central State Hospital cost
$4.1 million in state and
; federal funds and includes 288
' beds.
Other dignitaries at the cere
mony included former U.S.
. Rep. Carl Vinson.
