erans who died “so that our na
tion may endure.” Wyden said
that on movie screens Monday,
people would watch “Pearl Har
bor” and be reminded of the his
torical events that have called
men and women to risk their
lives for America.
Wyden presented Cpl. Orlando
Chada with several awards, in
cluding a Purple Heart, for his
“willingness to serve his coun
try” during the Korean War in the
U.S. Army infantry. Chada, who
left the military 45 years ago, re
ceived the Purple Heart for the
wounds he received on April 11,
1951, when he advanced with his
platoon against the enemy. The
Wisconsin native was also given
two additional awards for his
courage and his determination,
including a Bronze Star. One of
the awards was reissued because
it was lost in a 1964 fire.
Wyden’s address was followed
by speeches from Brigadier Gen.
Ray Byrne, Eugene Mayor Jim
Torrey and Lane County Commis
sioner Peter Sorenson. Gen. Norm
Hoffman announced the laying of
memorial wreaths in a semi-cir
cle in honor of those who had
died, as participants in the audi
ence and those presenting the
wreaths wiped away tears.
Col. Alvin Noland said the
fourth annual service has been
getting bigger and better every
year. Noland, a 70-year-old who
served during the Korean War
from 1951 to 1953, has been on
the Oregon State Defense Force
for 23 years. He stressed the im
portance of remembering and
honoring veterans.
“It’s to teach the younger peo
ple the sacrifices that the elders
have taken,” Noland said. “After
the Korean and Vietnam people
are gone, there won’t be anyone
to promote this type of thing.”
Memorial Day is more than just
a three-day weekend that marks
the beginning of summer. Origi
nally known as Decoration Day, it
was a time set aside to honor
those Americans who died in the
Civil War by decorating their
graves.
On May 5, 1868, Gen. John A.
Logan of the Grand Army of the
Republic proclaimed the day a
holiday. It was first observed on

Irwin Moore of the Eugene Skydivers Association touches down in the flag-filled
cemetery to help open ceremonies at West lawn Memorial Park.
May 30, 1868. The name of the
day was changed to Memorial
Day in 1882, and in 1971 it was
declared a national holiday to be
held every year on the last Mon
day of May.
(i This sacrifice deserves
more appreciation than
we could possibly give in
onedayoftheyear.
Ray Byrne
brigadier general,
41st Infantry
Brigade JJ
The holiday has become a time
when people honor close friends
and relatives who have died, as
well as America’s fallen soldiers.
Eugene citizen Debbie Oliver,
who attended the service, said
people often forget the actual
meaning behind the holiday.
“People are caught up so much
in themselves and in the mo
ment,” Oliver said.
She and her husband attended
the service in respect for those
who died in combat.
Byrne, the commander of the
41st Infantry Brigade, said this
day of mixed emotions is meant
to remember the more than 1 mil
lion people who have “fallen in
defense of our country.”
“Because they died, we may
live,” Byrne said.
Byrne said people today’ are
connected with the anguish and
suffering of those heroes through
symbols such as landmarks and
memorial walls.
“This sacrifice deserves more
appreciation than we could pos
sibly give in one day of the year,”
Byrne said.

It is “to teach the younger gen
eration and young folks the im
portance of honoring war veter
ans,” he said. “Freedom is not
free. We have freedom that no
other country has.”
Seth Barron, a Eugene resident
who served in the U.S. Navy dur
H A lot of our people
died for the freedom
young people have today.
Harold Burgard
veteran,
Korean War
H
ing the Korean War, said many
children view war as a distant idea
that does not really affect them.
“They’ve heard stories and
seen movies,” he said. “To them
it’s just a movie, but it’s reality.”
Christina Lindsay, a member of
Shasta’s eighth-grade choir, said
young people should appreciate
Memorial Day in order to uphold
the values of soldiers who have
died for the country.
“They fought for honor, and if
we honor them we carry out what
they [believed in],” she said.
Attacker

targeting women of the same age
group — late teens, early twenties
— and is attacking females walk
ing alone.
“Both the areas he’s attacking
in — Pioneer Cemetery and the
bike paths in Alton Baker Park —
and the time of day he’s making
the attacks offers the opportunity
for more encounters,” McKee
said.
Because the suspect has not
succeeded in physically hurting

any women thus far, Livingston
said this is the best time for him
to turn himself in.
“Turn yourself in and get help
before you get hurt, killed or put
in jail for doing something really
terrible,” said Livingston, when
asked what he would say to the
suspect.
Livingston said University
women should find someone to
walk with if they can’t find a ride,
and they should walk in well-lit
places if they must walk alone.
“Listen to your instincts,” Liv
ingston said. “They are stronger
than you think. Don’t talk your
self out of listening to them. ”
