This is just south of us on Hwy 75 south. A farmer does it with his tractor and not sure if he uses a plow or a disc He uses GPS to get the letters readable. He has done this every fall for several years now.
Here's the view from the flight pattern into OFFUTT AIR FORCE BASE ( Bellevue , NE., just south of Omaha ). This is what our servicemen see when landing at Offutt AFB. Hat tip to the Bellevue farmer who made it happen!   clap

Amen!  It is our Service Men and Women that defend and keep our freedom.  Freedom isn't free and like it or not, sometimes our men and women die for US.  Thank you to all of our Great Defenders and God Bless.
