U.S. Strategic Command Protecting Omaha and our Nation
Protecting America's freedom is a global role of the U.S. Strategic Command (USSTRATCOM) headquartered at Offutt Air Force Base south of Omaha.
Offutt AFB and STRATCOM employ more than 10,000 military and civilian personnel on the 4,000-acre base, making it the largest employer locally. Offutt's annual economic impact on the community is reported at more than $2 billion.
USSTRATCOM provides intelligence, surveillance, planning and network and information operations expertise as well as global missile strike defense to U.S. forces and allies around the globe. With their presence more than 50 defense contractors do business here, resulting in almost 2,500 defense related jobs.
USSTRATCOM has played a major part in helping protect our country even being visited by President George W. Bush on September 11, 2001, where he conducted one of the first major strategy sessions for the response to the attacks on that day.
USSTRATCOM and Offutt have been key in protecting our country as well as providing the people of Omaha with not only great jobs, but pride for having such a great facility here in our area.
