AVAHCS will host the Annual Thomas E. Creek Remembrance Ceremony on February 13 at 2 p.m. via Facebook Live.
February 13, 2025, marks 56 years since Thomas E. Creek was killed in action. Creek was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor, the highest award for military valor in action, and is the youngest service member in Texas history to have received the prestigious award. In 2004, the Amarillo VA Medical Center was renamed after Thomas E. Creek in honor of his heroic actions.
