U.S. Honor Flag Ceremony

U.S. Honor Flag Ceremony

 

CORPUS CHRISTI, TEXAS - (News Release) On August 8, 2024, a ceremony was held at the main Police Station for the US Honor Flag that will be displayed to Honor the life and service of Officer Kyle Hicks and Senior Officer Vicente Ortiz Jr.

The United States Honor Flag’s origin began shortly after the September 11, 2001, attacks. An American flag and a Texas flag were gifted to Chris Heisler from the Texas House of Representatives as a thank you for taking Texas first responders to Ground Zero.

The flags traveled with Chris as he led the largest convoy of first responders in United States history to Ground Zero. This American flag memorialized the fallen heroes of 9/11 and this began an unwavering commitment to ensure America’s heroes are never forgotten.

Heisler took this American flag with him as he served in the U.S. Army in Iraq, Afghanistan, and the Texas National Guard.”

The US Honor Flag has travelled throughout the United States to countless first responder line of duty funerals and has even flown on the space shuttle. The US Honor Flag continues to travel across our nation to honor our fallen heroes to this day.
