Offutt Air Force Base, which celebrated its 100th anniversary in 2018, has a rich military legacy that includes more than four decades as headquarters for the former Strategic Air Command (SAC), which is US Strategic Command (USSTRATCOM), and central roles in both World War II and the Cold War.
Offutt hosts combat-ready aircrew and collects signals intelligence for their areas of global responsibility. The base houses multiple types of mission-ready aircraft, including those from the 55th Wing and the plane tasked with transporting the Secretary of Defence.
