We were honored to welcome six sailors from the USS Nebraska to Raising Nebraska earlier today! 🇺🇸⚓

As Nebraska's namesake submarine prepares to serve our nation, it was a privilege to host members of its crew and share the stories, people, and agricultural heritage that make our state so special.

Thank you to these sailors for your service, dedication, and commitment to our country. We are proud to celebrate the connection between Nebraska and the USS Nebraska and look forward to following your journey.
