Dear <First Name-Surname>
2023 marks 70 years since the signing of the armistice that bought about an end to military operations during the Korean War. 60,000 service personnel from across Britain and the Commonwealth saw action during the Korean War, with 1,100 losing their lives.
The Royal British Legion will be marking this important milestone in an often-forgotten conflict with a special service of remembrance at Horse Guards Parade on Thursday 27 July from 11am. The event will focus on telling the story of the Korean War through the testimony and memories of the conflict from those who were there, as well as looking to inform and engage the wider audience and attendees about a war which never truly ended.
Attendees/Eligibility
Korea 70 is a ticketed event open to British and Commonwealth veterans who served in the Korean War, bereaved family members and their descendants (spouse, partner, or family members). The surrounding event expo area will be open to the wider public.
We want to share the story of the 70th anniversary of the Korean War with as wide an audience as possible. Where previously invited guests/veterans would bring a single guest, we encourage you to bring your friends and family members with you to this event. You will be able to request up to three guests when event registration opens in April.
Registration
All eligible attendees will need to register their interest to attend the event by following the link below and completing and submitting the Register your Interest form. We will then be in touch again via email when registration opens in April to ask you to complete your full event accreditation. It is at this point you will be able to invite your additional guests.
If you have any questions, or require any assistance, please email korea@britishlegion.org.uk
Kind Regards
The Remembrance Events Team
