For Gallantry & Service is honored to partner with the Irving Archives and Museum in producing “Service Beyond Duty”—a local/regional companion exhibition to the Smithsonian Institution National Museum of the American Indian’s “Why We Serve” exhibition.
“Service Beyond Duty” will feature two Cherokee Nation veterans of the United States Air Force and two Wichita and Affiliated Tribes veterans of the United States Marine Corps and the US Army.
Also featured are two digital experiences spotlighting Native American Medal of Honor Recipients from World War II, the Korean War, and the Vietnam War, presented with generous support from the Congressional Medal of Honor Society.
Both exhibitions come together to tell the story of countless Native American veterans who have served in the United States Armed Forces for more than two centuries, dating back to the American Revolution.
Please join the North Texas community at the opening reception, Saturday, March 21, 2026, at 1:00 p.m. as we honor the valiant service, sacrifice and heritage of our fellow Americans.
