On July 12, 2003, former President Ronald W. Reagan was on hand at the commissioning of his namesake aircraft carrier, the USS Ronald Reagan. As VP Dick Cheney and former first lady Nancy Reagan addressed the crowd gathered at Naval Station Norfolk, longtime Peavey dealer Audio Light and Musical of Norfolk used nearly 40 individual Peavey loudspeaker enclosures to bring the ceremony to the thousands of onlookers and a televised audience of millions.
