WE SALUTE OUR VETERANS

Honoring Their Service. Preserving Their Stories

Help Us Preserve the Stories of Okemah’s Veterans

The Okemah Community Historical Foundation (OCHF) is calling upon our members, descendants, families, and friends to help us identify and honor the men and women of the Okemah community who served in the United States Armed Forces. We are seeking photographs, military service information, personal memories, and family stories to update and expand our historical documentary and preserve the legacy of Okemah’s veterans for future generations. Whether your loved one served during wartime or peacetime, every name, photograph, and story is an important part of our community’s history.

We need your help! Look through those family photo albums, old military records, letters, and treasured keepsakes. Talk with your parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, and other relatives who may remember the stories of those who served. Even if you have only a photograph, a name, or a few memories, we encourage you to share what you know. Simply download the Veterans Project Information Form below, complete as much as you can, and return it to OCHF using the instructions provided. Together, we can ensure that the service, sacrifices, and contributions of Okemah’s veterans are never forgotten.

“Okemah, Gone but Not Forgotten.”
