A message from Carolyn LaMarr (nee Moss) Proud daughter of a Korean War Veteran

Peter Moss

I’m truly proud of my father’s service to his country and I’m thankful too, that after many, many years, the “Forgotten War” is now getting the recognition it deserves.  The BKVA has done a wonderful job increasing awareness of the sacrifices made in Korea.   On behalf of my late father, thank you for all you do for former service men and women of the Korean War.

Peter Moss died on June 19th, 2006.  He served in Korea between 1950 and 1953 in the Royal New Zealand Navy.   Not a Kiwi by birth, he also served in the Royal Navy but remained true to his loyal shipmates whom he served with in the Korean War. He served on two ships, HMNZS Tutira and HMNZS Hawea for the duration of the war.
