Two members of the Cornell University Class of 1952 who were killed during military service in Vietnam will be honored at the rededication of the Korean/Vietnam War Memorial in the rotunda of Anabel Taylor Hall on the Cornell campus at 4:15 p.m. Friday, June 6.

The names of Roger H. Coye and John J. Lawendowski will be unveiled and added to the current roster of 47 Cornellians from the classes of 1927 to 1971 who were killed in service during the Korean War, Vietnam War and the Cold War. The memorial was dedicated during Cornell Reunion in 1993.

Cornell President Emeritus Frank H.T. Rhodes will preside over the ceremony. The keynote speaker will be Jay Morley, former senior vice president at Cornell who now is president of the National Association of College and University Business Officers (NACUBO). He was an officer in the Marine Corps who served as a helicopter pilot in Vietnam.

"This June marks the 10th anniversary of the establishment of Cornell's Korean/Vietnam War Memorial, as well as the 50-year celebration of the end of the Korean War," noted William Huling '68, senior corporate programs director in the Johnson Graduate School of Management and university coordinator of the rededication committee. "The ceremony will offer us an opportunity to honor the sacrifices made by Cornellians during the wars that followed World War II. We will remember Cornell's important role in producing citizen soldiers to serve and protect our country."

Letters and memorabilia from the Korean and Vietnam wars will be on display.
