Join #AmericasTankDivision as they celebrate the 246th birthday of the U.S. Army at Iron Soldier Field. They will have static vehicle and weapons displays today. In addition to those displays, the museum will have historical displays, AAFES will host Food Trucks and a mobile barber shop from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. At 3 p.m., join The Real Iron 7 and Command Sgt. Maj. Michael Williams as they commemorate the occasion with a ceremonial cake cutting!

*UPDATE* The 24.6-hour birthday run is CANCELLED. We put the safety of our Soldiers above all else, and, considering El Paso’s historic high temperatures right now, we have decided to celebrate only on Monday. We will still have food trucks and static displays, and, of course the ceremonial cake cutting.

We are ready to vaccinate beneficiaries aged 12 to 15 years old!

Vaccinations for 12 to 15 year old eligible beneficiaries will start Wednesday, May 26. Vaccinations for this age group will be primarily appointment based and will be at Stout Gym only. The Freedom Crossing vaccination site cannot accommodate this age group due to staffing. A parent or guardian is required to be present on site for the administration of the vaccine for anyone under the age of 18.

Eligible teens who are TRICARE beneficiaries can go online to the TRICARE Patient Portal (TOL) at www.tricareonline.com to book an appointment. Patients who need walk-through instructions for TOL can find a downloadable document on the hospital’s COVID-19 vaccination webpage, found at https://william-beaumont.tricare.mil/Getting-Care/COVID-19/COVID-19-Vaccinations.

TRICARE beneficiaries who do not have access to TOL, can call the appointment line at 915-742-2273 to schedule COVID-19 vaccine appointments.

Stout Gym on Fort Bliss is located at 2930 Cassidy Rd. The hours of operation are 9 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. on weekdays, and 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturdays. The site is subject to closure on federal holidays.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration expanded the emergency use authorization (EUA) of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine for adolescents between the ages of 12 and 15. Once the Advisory Committee for Immunization Practices (ACIP) issues guidance on the vaccine's recommended use, the Department of Defense is planning to begin offering vaccinations to DoD beneficiaries 12 to 15 years of age.

WBAMC will begin administering the Pfizer vaccine to the new age group once the DoD approves and gives guidance to do so. We will make public announcements when it is time to begin. Parents and guardians that have questions regarding vaccinations are encouraged to discuss their concerns with a medical provider.

Hispanic Heritage Month Podcast

As Hispanic Heritage Month comes to a close, we share with you our podcast with guests of Hispanic backgrounds, sharing their stories and their service to our nation. According to the U.S. Army Center of Military History, Hispanics were not identified as an ethnicity on military records until the Vietnam War— so the exact number who served during WWII is unknown— however, unofficial estimates range between 400,000 and 500,000.
