Dear Editor,

I would like to inform your readers about two medals available for our veterans, the National Order of the Legion of Honour from France and the Ambassador for Peace Medal from the Republic of Korea.

The Government of France is awarding its highest medal to all living Canadian veterans who directly helped to liberate their country from June 6 and Aug. 30, 1944.

The Republic of Korea is presenting its Ambassador for Peace Medal to all Canadian Veterans who participated in the Korean War and its peace keeping operations between 1950 and 1955. Living veterans or the families of veterans who have passed away may be eligible to receive this special medal from Korea.

If you are a veteran or know someone who is and might be eligible for one of these important medals, contact me. I am an unofficial volunteer willing to help you with your application.

Contact me at #515-95 Moody Street, Port Moody, B.C. V3H 0H2 or email Korea19501953@yahoo.com.
