Abbotsford Korean Veterans at Great Korean War Event and Appreciation Luncheon at Consul General’s Residence in Vancouver.

Branch 15 Veterans of the Korean War and Peacekeeping, John Molnar and Dan Norgaard, attended this event in Vancouver on June 25th.

Michael Cheng reports “it was a great turnout to commemorate the war and salute the veterans.” “All levels of governments were attending and showed their respects. It was a great honour to call the names of the BC Honour Roll.”

Branch 15 veterans are seated in the front row on the right hand side of the photo.  Dan is second from the right and John is fourth from the right.  Between them is their comrade of 66 years ago, Harry Voth of Richmond, BC.

As John writes as a caption (on the notice board at branch 15) : “Reunited after 66 years. The ceremony took place at the Great Korean Memorial Event.’ ” Harry Voth of Richmond BC; John Molnar and Dan Norgaard of Abbotsford BC, all served on the HMCS Cayuga.”
