🇰🇷🇬🇧 This week, we welcomed the Korean Ambassador to York, where he laid a wreath at the Korean War Memorial in honour of those who served—and those who never returned.

The Ambassador met with Korean War veterans and their families, paying tribute to the brave soldiers of the Duke of Wellington’s Regiment, an antecedent of today’s Royal Yorkshire Regiment, who served with distinction during the Korean War.

“Although we can never fully repay our debt to these brave men and women, we will continue to take every opportunity to honour veterans and their families to ensure that their sacrifices were not in vain.” – Ambassador of the Republic of Korea

A powerful moment of remembrance and a reaffirmation of the lasting bond between our two nations. 🇰🇷🤝🇬🇧
