Default Veterans Hall Of Valour..

OTTAWA, April 22 /CNW Telbec/ - War Amps CEO Cliff Chadderton will be
inducted into the Canada Veterans Hall of Valour at 8:15 p.m. on April 23rd at
the Penthouse Panorama Room of the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Ottawa.
His tribute will be read by George Blackburn, previous inductee and
author of three best sellers on his war experiences.
Enlisting in 1939 with the Royal Winnipeg Rifles, Mr. Chadderton went
from a non-commissioned officer to company commander and was four months in
combat in France and Belgium. A Normandy veteran, he was wounded twice, losing
his right leg in 1944 battling for the Scheldt Estuary.
The Hall, opening May 28th in Carleton Place, Ontario, pays tribute to
Canada's veterans who have been singled out for valour, featuring their
portrait and a biography detailing their military exploits.
"I am tremendously honoured to be included as an inductee," said
Chadderton, noting that it was fitting that the Hall is opening during the
Year of the Veteran. "This Hall has been a labour of love, and this event is
also an opportunity to pay tribute to the organizers for their work in
establishing this wonderful facility."
