Community Support

The Nebraska National Guard Community Relations welcomes the opportunity to connect our communities with the mission and capabilities of the Nebraska Army and Air National Guard. We are pleased to offer resources for the public to request military bands, color/honor guards, exhibit displays and speakers. We require at least 30 days notice in order to process all requestes.

To request additional information for any of these resources: Please fill out a request form or email the Public Affairs Office at kevin.j.hynes.mil@mail.mil.
