Nebraska Army National Guard Warrant Officers came together July 9 at Haymarket Park in Lincoln for the 100th Anniversary Celebration of the Warrant Officer Cohort. The event included a static display with a Humvee, a UH-60 Blackhawk helicopter and other U.S. Army National Guard vehicles and equipment. The Warrant Officers and their families were invited to enjoy a Lincoln Saltdogs baseball game where the players wore patriotic jerseys and played on behalf of the Nebraska National Guard against the Kansas City T-Bones. Many of Nebraska’s Warrant Officers and family members had an opportunity to participate in the game, including Chief Warrant Officer 3 Joseph Amen who had the honor of throwing the first pitch. Warrant Officer Timothy Beckman’s son, Jayden, was selected as the junior manager for the game and also announced “Play Ball,” at the start of the game. Before the fourth inning, the stadium announcers wished a happy 100th Anniversary to the Warrant Officer Corhort, complete with a traditional cake cutting broadcast on the big screen.
