November 11, 2025 – Vancouver, BC
Honored to be invited and participate in the City of Vancouver’s Remembrance Day Ceremony, a formal and moving tribute televised live across Canada. Thousands lined the streets to honor and remember the fallen.
Our members proudly marched alongside ANAVETS Pacific Unit 280. We were the only organization from the United States in attendance. The ceremony featured a flyover, artillery salute, and remarks from Mayor Ken Sim, Vancouver’s first Chinese Canadian mayor.
Grateful to our friend King Wan and ANAVETS Unit 280 for coordinating our participation.
Beautiful weather, heartfelt ceremony — an unforgettable day of remembrance and friendship.
