Legion launches service recognition book
Ontario Command of the Royal Canadian Legion is proud to introduce the publishing of the very first Military Service Recognition Book.
A book that will assist in identifying and recognizing many veterans in Ontario, while at the same time assist with the job as “Keepers of Remembrance”.
This Military Service Recognition Book will serve as a reminder for generations to come of the contributions made towards the creation of the nation and the continuance of Canada as a protector of freedom. The public is invited to visit a local Legion Branch to obtain more information on how to submit stories or a military biography and a photo of veterans.
Recognition of veterans both past and present are important; help give veterans the recognition they deserve.
With the help of veterans and their families and friends the first book is scheduled to be published and released in September of 2014.
Although this program is about Remembrance and the history of our veterans, a telephone appeal will take place to the general public and businesses for advertising sales for the book. This telephone appeal will be conducted by the book’s publisher, Fenety Marketing.
Funds raised through the program will assist and support many Legion initiatives and assist branches to remain a viable partner in the communities.
