The service of Chinese Canadian soldiers in the First and Second World Wars will be honoured by an exhibition at the Chinese Canadian Museum in Vancouver.
Former B.C. judge Randall Wong remembers getting out of bed early one morning when he was five to greet his uncle at the train station in Vancouver at the end of the Second World War in 1945.“I remember very vividly my uncle coming off the train, and he was wearing his army uniform and knapsack,” said Wong, 83. The service of Chinese Canadian soldiers like Chao in the First and Second World Wars will be honoured by a new exhibition at the Chinese Canadian Museum in Vancouver's Chinatown.
Melissa Karmen Lee, chief executive officer with the Chinese Canadian Museum, said the exhibition would show Chinese Canadians' involvement "in every single part of the Canadian war effort." If he could travel back in time to thank such veterans, he would tell them "we are forever grateful for what you have accomplished."
