50 States. 70 Cities. 90 Days.
From 4/27 – 7/27 (Korean War Armistice Day). From LA to DC
Join the Journey across the US to
Thank Korean War Veterans, Help Build the Wall of Remembrance, and Promote Peace in Korea.
The Korean War is sometimes referred to as the “Forgotten War,” but it is anything but forgotten for those who served and their families. More than 36,000 Americans were killed in action, over 100,000 were Wounded in Action, and almost 8,000 remain unaccounted for — to say nothing of the millions of Americans who served and carry those memories with them.
From 4/27 to 7/27, Hannah Y Kim will be leading a three-month journey to visit Korean War Veteran Memorials in all 50 states to meet and thank Korean War Veterans and remind the public about the grave cost of war.
The goal of this journey is to raise awareness and funds to help build a Wall of Remembrance at the National Korean War Memorial in Washington, DC to honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice and remind us all that “Freedom is not Free.”
Although the Wall of Remembrance Act was passed by Congress in 2016, plans to build the wall have languished due to a lack of initial funds. The goal is for the Wall of Remembrance to be built as soon as possible so that as many Korean War Veterans can attend the dedication ceremony.
