Sen. Ricketts gives message to veterans and Nebraskans

LINCOLN, Neb. (KLKN) — On Nov. 11, Veteran’s Day, Sen. Pete Ricketts sent a message to Nebraskans and veterans.

“Today I encourage every Nebraskan to thank a veteran,” Ricketts said. “Take time to listen to their stories and learn from their experiences. This is how we continue to remember what has made freedom possible. We are the home of the free because of the brave.”

Ricketts said he especially is recognizing the nearly 120,000 veterans that call Nebraska home.
