The goal of every Navy Week is to give area residents an opportunity to meet some of the Navy's Sailors and learn about the Navy's critical missions and its broad ranging capabilities.

"Rear Adm. McAneny and Rear Adm. Robin M. Watters will serve as our leading spokespeople for Omaha Navy Week 2011. Also participating are Sailors with significant ties to the local area."
