Last week, OPPD representatives attended the Vietnam Veterans Memorial opening ceremony in Papillion. The memorial honors the 396 Nebraska troops killed in action in Vietnam, as well as four who died in a training accident before being deployed. We are proud to have contributed to creating a memorial that pays tribute to the fallen. 💙🤍❤️ The memorial is located south of the SumTur Amphitheater near South 108th Street.

One of the veterans in our program, Danny, is a veteran of the Vietnam War. He has a great sense of humor and is enjoying reconnecting with equines. Men like him are the reason we continue the Horse Wisdom for Heroes program despite being underfunded. The guys who exit the program describe how it changes so much for them.

People don't often think about the needs of low-income and homeless Veterans. The need for groceries due to food insecurity is so high that when we open registration for our Military & Veteran Food Distributions each month, they fill up in about 8 minutes. September is #HungerActionMonth. Here's a look at our Food Distributions in action, and the impact they have on the Veterans we serve. https://bit.ly/3L2jTUw

Executive Assistant to the Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense (DASD) for Military Community & Family Policy (MCFP) in the Organization of the Joint Chiefs at the Pentagon.
Today the nation remembers and honors National POW/MIA Day. The Defense Department remembers and honors those Americans who were Prisoners of War and those who served and never returned home. The DoD’s POW/MIA Accounting Agency continues the search for the missing, fulfilling the nation’s promise to leave no service member behind. #NationalPOWMIADay2023 #ThePentagon #MilitaryCommunityandFamilyPolicy #Bratt2015 History In the United States, National POW/MIA Recognition Day is observed on the third Friday in September. It honors those who were prisoners of war (POWs) and those who are still missing in action (MIA). It is most associated with those who were POWs during the Vietnam War. National Vietnam War Veterans Day is March 29, the date in 1973 when the last US combat troops departed the Republic of Vietnam. The POW/MIA Flag should fly below, and not be larger than, the United States flag. It is generally flown immediately below or adjacent to the United States flag as second in order of precedence.
