By CAITLIN DOORNBOS | STARS AND STRIPES Published: April 19, 2021 WASHINGTON – About 750 airmen and civilian employees of the Air Force’s 55th Wing have moved to the Nebraska Air National Guard base at the Lincoln Municipal Airport as Offutt Air Force Base undergoes a two-year, $150 million runway construction project, Nebraska National Guard Adjutant General Maj. Gen. Daryl Bohac said Monday. Nebraska Gov. Pete Ricketts on Friday symbolically reopened Lincoln Air Force Base -- a Cold War-era Air Force base that operated where the National Guard base and municipal airport are now, according to the proclamation signed Friday. The proclamation honors the airport’s military history and allows the National Guard base at the airport to be called Lincoln Air Force Base until March 1, 2023, when the 55th Wing is expected to return to Offutt.
