Look for the "KWVA KOREAN WAR VETERANS ASSOCIATION Trailer. Learn about
"The Forgotten War" You are invited to read al the posters on the walls &
KWVA Members will be available to answer questions. If you have served
DURING Korea or SERVED IN Korea since the War, you are eligible for
membership & requested to join the KWVA. $30 per year is not much to help
support Korean Veterans. Look for my M38A1 near the trailer. Pictures are
allowed in my M38A1. This makes a great family picture for your album.
Some families take an annual picture.
The Vietnam Veteran have TABLE A-4, and will gladly help anyone from that
Era. They have many items for sale to raise $$$ to help Vietnam Veterans.
The "MTA" will have a table inside with many nice items for sale. "MVPA"
Military Vehicle Preservation Society items are also available.
FYI: The MTA has raised funds for the SUPPORT THE TROOPS efforts. We
have been sending multiple packages every week to activated troops. Some
of the troops are from the Dover NJ Armory. Some recently have returned
from IRAQ. Hopefully they will be fully rested & be at the show.
More updates soon. Especially after club members contact me & tell me
what I forgot. I forget things on purpose, just to see if they really read
my updates.
Long Distant vendors/displayers, let me know & I will show people just how
wide our support is during this show. So far: Ohio, Upstate NY, LI,
South NJ.
Stop in the KWVA trailer & say "Hello" See you there.
