Updated BMD Overview and GMD Presentations (May 27, 2015)

This post updates my post of  June 26, 2013, in which I collected together a number of the publicly available MDA Overview  and GMD System type briefings by MDA or other military/government officials (if you have one I missed, please send it to me).  Thanks to Laura Grego at the Union of Concerned Scientists for obtaining the Todorov slides and most recent Syring briefing (one by FOIA, the other just by asking MDA).
