Introducing our new Rotarian, Bob Leddy, an Omaha native and Navy Veteran. Bob’s service to the Omaha community began in high school when he founded Omaha’s first Habitat for Humanity High School Campus Chapter at Creighton Prep. Following Prep, he entered the United States Naval Academy in Annapolis, majoring in Political Science and Russian. In 2017, Bob was commissioned as an Ensign in the U.S. Navy and became a Nuclear Submarine Officer. Following nuclear training in Charleston, SC and Groton, CT, Bob served for three years onboard the Ballistic Missile Submarine USS TENNESSEE (SSBN-734) out of Kings Bay, GA, completing five Strategic Deterrence Patrols. While there, he met his now wife, Emily, also an Omaha native. In 2021, Bob was assigned to Offutt, AFB, where he served as a Nuclear Missile Targeting Officer at STRATCOM and as a Strategic Operations Officer aboard the National Airborne Operations Center (NAOC). Bob resigned his Commission last summer and now works as a Project Engineer for Kiewit Building Group in Omaha, NE. Bob’s commitment to excellence and his passion for fostering growth make him an invaluable addition to our Rotary family. We look forward to the remarkable contributions he will undoubtedly bring to our organization and the greater Omaha community.Thank you to Hal Daub for sponsoring Bob to Rotary.
