Eighty years ago, Germany surrendered to the Allies, bringing the war to an end in Europe. Our victory would not have been assured without the millions of Americans who answered the call to serve their country, and we owe a debt of gratitude to our World War II veterans.

The atrocities committed by the Nazi regime are a terrible and powerful reminder of what can happen when we allow hate and prejudice to proliferate. On this, the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau, we honor the memories of the six million Jewish people who were killed and the many other countless victims with the promise that we will #NeverForget and #NeverAgain.

6 a.m. conditioning. Roll a tennis ball on a PVC rail the length of the field. If the ball comes off, drop and do 20 burpees, then start over.

Thanks, @NENationalGuard, for facilitating an elite TEAM workout!

NSP Pilots were also extremely busy, including airlifting people to safety and even delivering blood to hospitals that weren't accessable by road because of the #2019Floods. These are all images from #TodayIn2019.

[Nebraska State Patrol @NEStatePatrol]

In addition to the survey flights, @NENationalGuard heroes were hard at work performing hoist rescues in many areas #TodayIn2019.

[Nebraska State Patrol @NEStatePatrol]

Also #TodayIn2019, the @NENationalGuard flew several members of the media, as well as reps from NSP, @NebraskaDOT, @NEMAtweets, and Governor Ricketts to survey damage in northeast Nebraska. Here are some photos from that flight.

[Nebraska State Patrol @NEStatePatrol]

#TodayIn2019 was marked by heroism. Anybody who could help did. Troopers used row boats, partnered with fanboat operators, and used our Light Armored Vehicle to rescue people in flooded areas. #2019Floods
