A Veterans Affairs Medical Center in West Virginia has changed its name to honor a 95-year-old veteran.
News outlets report the VA Medical Center in Huntington held a ceremony Sunday to officially rename the center after Medal of Honor recipient Hershel “Woody” Williams, a retired Marine and Department of Veterans Affairs service officer. The VA said Williams is a longtime advocate for veterans and their families.
A large crowd stood and applauded and several Marines gave a hearty “hoorah” when officials unveiled a sign and new plaque.
The Hershel “Woody” Williams VA Medical Center serves more than 30,000 veterans in a service area that includes 10 counties in West Virginia, two counties in southern Ohio and 12 counties in eastern Kentucky.
