60th Anniversary of Korean Armistice
Tomorrow, July 27, will be the 60th Anniversary of the "end" of the Korean war.
It is often a forgotten conflict, but Canada had around 26,000 serve and suffered 516 deaths.
The war saw the 2nd Battalion PPCLI fight an engagement (Kapyong) which resulted in them being awarded the Presidential Unit Citation.
