Korean War Veterans' Recognition

Potter County's Korean War Veterans Appreciation Dinner and Memorial Ceremony earned us a commendation from the U.S. Defense Department. Potter County’s ceremony was used as a model for other counties across the nation holding similar Korean War veterans’ recognition events. As part of this commemoration of "the forgotten war," there's a public display of mementos at the Gunzburger Building. Among its features is a series of photographs depicting the eight Potter County men who were killed in action: Paul M. Brown, Edward W. Duston, Lewis A. Guilds, John Goery, Donald T. Johnson, Robert I. Roberts, Gerald Lattin and Fred J. VanWhy.
