On June 25, 1950, the North Korean Army began an offensive to invade South Korea that resulted in the capture of the republic’s capital, Seoul, within four days. The United States, the United Kingdom and other members of the United Nations moved to actively defend South Korea – an effort that would last until July 27, 1953, when negotiations concluded and fighting finally ended.

 

On July 26, 2019, at 10 a.m. the local VFW Post 8904 and the Auxillary held a wreath-laying ceremony in honor of the 66th Anniversary of the Korean War Armistice.
