British Korean Veterans Association
.A decision was taken at the 2013 AGM to close the Association at a date to be determined (probably later in 2014)
once the New Korean War Memorial has been installed and Dedicated on the south bank of the gardens of the
Ministry
of Defence building in Whitehall facing on to the River Thames and after the ‘Laying
Up’ of our National Standards.
The decision was made on the basis: ‘We go out with our Heads held high rather than
just fade away’
Communications
by e-mail will continue until the closure date and thereafter between those Branches who
still wish to remain in contact. New members are still welcome and should contact:

future generations.
