Bartlesville has been recognized as a "Purple Heart City."
The honor was presented Monday evening during the Bartlesville City Council meeting by Purple Heart Chapter 589 commander and state ambassador Mitch Reed in recognition of the city's dedication to supporting Purple Heart recipients.
Vice Mayor Jim Curd read a proclamation for the designation.
Commander Reed said he started this process of recognizing cities in northeast Oklahoma seven years ago. He says the designation of being a "Purple Heart City" is a true honor.
Earlier in April 2024, Washington County was designated as a "Purple Heart County" in a similar ceremony.
