Summary
Step into history at the Nebraska National Guard Museum’s epic new USA250 exhibit, launching this July 4th — the perfect day to honor America’s 250th birthday and say goodbye to director Gerald Meyer, who’s retiring. This massive, immersive display traces the Guard’s legacy from Revolutionary War days to today, featuring real-life actors like Robert Mergel portraying Theodore Roosevelt — one of four Mount Rushmore figures brought to life. Visitors will meet Washington, Jefferson, and Lincoln too, not just as statues, but as real people with deep ties to Nebraska. It’s a stirring, patriotic celebration designed to make history feel alive — and it’s set to be a bittersweet, unforgettable milestone for the museum and its community.
