Volume 24 www.legionnl.com 5 Newfoundland Labrador Command President’s Message Newfoundland and Labrador Command of The Royal Canadian Legion extends its sincere thanks to all those who have contributed to the most recent addition of the Veteran Service Recognition Book. With this publication, we continue to, not only educate the youth of our province but all ages of our province who view this most recent publication of those Newfoundlanders and Labradorians who have served our country both at home and abroad with honour, loyalty and dedication. The military history of our province dates back centuries and is quite unique and distinguished and until 1949 our province held the same status as the Dominion of Canada, that being the Dominion of Newfoundland. As a result of this long history and involvement of our military in international assignments, we have received honours and awards from many countries and many commendations have been bestowed by the crown for distinguished and gallant service. Now as the tenth province of Canada, Newfoundlanders and Labradorians continue to serve with passion and determination and enjoy the respect of a grateful nation. Gerald W. Budden President Newfoundland and Labrador Command Royal Canadian Legion We Will Remember Them
