TVSHKA HOMMA, Okla. – The Choctaw Veterans Day Ceremony is set for Saturday, November 11 at 11 a.m. in the Arts & Crafts Building on the Historic Choctaw Capitol Grounds at Tvshka Homma. Choctaws who have served in any branch of military service are encouraged to attend the annual event. Family members, friends, and the public also are invited.
