The highlight of the evening belonged to Post member Donald Roy.  Don, a decorated veteran, served in the Army as a combat medic during the Korean War and was honored for his service by Edward Davis, Commander of the Maine Chapter of the Korean War Veterans Association.  Below, Don (shaking hands on the left) receives a Certificate of Appreciation (signed by Maine Governor John Baldacci) from Commander Davis, while Don's wife Arlene Roy and Post 128 Commander Carl Henrikson look on.

 

 

In addition, Commander Davis also presented Don with two campaign and service medals, as well as a beautiful shadow box complete with Don's service medals, ribbons, rank, and other insignia.

 

 

The members of Standish Memorial Post 128 congratulate Donald Roy for his service to our great nation, and are honored to have him as a Post member.
