USS Nebraska Crew Tours Home State
Description
Sailors from the USS Nebraska, a nuclear-powered ballistic missile submarine, are on an eight-day tour across their home state, bringing the submarine’s mission to life through community stops and Nebraska-themed rooms named after cities like Lincoln and Grand Island. Crew members, including those proudly wearing college gear, are embracing the chance to represent their roots while sharing their unique underwater world with Nebraskans. Commanding Officer Josh McCright says the warm welcome they’re receiving is unlike anything the crew has ever experienced — a powerful moment of connection for sailors who spend months submerged. As they move from Grand Island to Kearney, this tour bridges military service with civilian appreciation, offering Nebraskans a rare glimpse into the silent, strategic power of the Navy’s Ohio-class submarines.
