OTTAWA, ON, April 23, 2005 - War Amps Chief Executive Officer Cliff Chadderton, has been notified that he will be inducted into the Canada Veterans Hall of Valour. The induction will take place at 8:15 p.m. on April 23^rd at the Penthouse Panorama Room of the Crowne Plaza Hotel, Queen Street at Lyon, in Ottawa.

During the ceremony, Mr. Chadderton's tribute will be read by George Blackburn, a previous inductee, whose fame has spread throughout Canada with the publication of his three best sellers -- The Guns of Normandy, The Guns of Victory, and Where the Hell are the Guns? 

Enlisting in 1939 with the Royal Winnipeg Rifles, Mr. Chadderton went from a non-commissioned officer to company commander and was four months in combat in France and Belgium. A Normandy veteran, he was wounded twice during the war, losing his right leg in 1944 battling for the Scheldt Estuary. His biography will be featured with his portrait in the Canada Veterans Hall of Valour.

The Hall, located at 267 Edmund Street in Carleton Place, Ontario, will have its official opening on May 28^th, 2005. It will pay tribute to Canada's veterans who have been singled out for valour, featuring their portrait and a biography detailing their military exploits.

"I am tremendously honoured to be included as an inductee," said Chadderton, noting that it was fitting that the Hall is opening during the Year of the Veteran. "This Hall has been a labour of love, and this event is also an opportunity to pay tribute to the organizers for their work in establishing this wonderful facility."
