Nebraska residents who are honorably discharged veterans may receive a one-day permit, Habitat Stamp, and Nebraska Migratory Waterfowl Stamp for free to hunt on Veterans Day.
They would be required to buy a Federal Duck Stamp if they intend to hunt waterfowl. They also need to register with the Harvest Information Program if they plan to hunt any migratory birds.
Veterans Day is observed annually on Nov. 11, regardless of the day of the week on which it falls. The free permit and stamps are valid only on Nov. 11 of the year they are issued.
Not all resident veterans desiring to hunt on Veterans Day would need this one-day permit, as they already may have valid permits for that day. Those permits would be annual hunt, annual hunt/fish combo, annual veteran hunt/fish/fur harvest combo, senior hunt/fish/fur harvest combo, deployed military hunt/fish/fur harvest combo, 3-year hunt, 3-year hunt/fish combo, 5-year hunt, 5-year hunt/fish combo, lifetime hunt, and lifetime hunt/fish combo permits.
The permit is available at GoOutdoorsNE.com or at any Game and Parks permitting office. Find them at OutdoorNebraska.gov/about/our-locations.
The Veterans Day permit is based on LB867, which was passed by the 108th Legislature and approved by the governor in April.
