Muscogee warriors, throughout our history, have fought against the United States of America, fought for the United States of America and since World War I have fought with our United States of America. From the trenches of European battlefields, jungles in the Pacific and the desert sands of the Middle East our Mvskoke warriors are commemorated within the halls of their home at the Muscogee (Creek) Nation Tribal Complex.
Furthermore, we continually build and display inside, and outside, the veterans building/museum a lasting reminder of the sacrifices and contributions of Muscogee veterans. All funding for the Muscogee (Creek) Veterans Affairs department and construction of the special building was approved in early 2006 by our Tribe’s National Council.
The construction of the building was completed in 2007, and the Veterans Affairs Services Office (VASO) occupied on 14 September 2007.
The four traditional war colors are blue, white, black, and red (note the colors are on the top of the Veterans building). These colors represent the ethos of a Muscogee warrior. They are as follows:
Blue: Back to the Creator
White: Peace
Black: Death
Red: War
