Each year National Korean War Veterans Day is celebrated on July 27th commemorating the signing of the armistice agreement ending the conflict in 1953. On that day our nation formally honors and thanks the Korean War veterans for their service and sacrifices. This program will highlight artifacts and stories from our collection as we pay tribute to those who served in the “Forgotten War”.
