On December 2, 2011 an event was held commemorating the Native Americans serving in the U.S. military since the American Revolution, and by percentage serve more than any other ethnic group in the armed forces. At this event Chuck Boers (Lipan Apache/Cherokee, pictured right on left), an Iraq War veteran and the recipient of two Bronze Stars and three Purple Heart medals presented to the Smithsonian NMAI a feather painting by Brandy Davis which commemorated the first known Pow Wow held in a combat zone.
