 er leave on the last boat to Vancouver and being trapped in Japan with you
 r father.  Imagine as well\, at the age of eighteen\, being photographed i

 slands\, Kiska Island\, Rabauf\, Saipan and the Gulf of Leyte while surviv
 ing several sinkings.\n\nThe JCCC Heritage Committee invites  you to hear 
 the extraordinary life of Harry Yoshida and his family.  Born in Chemainus
 \, British Columbia in 1924\, his life experiences are the stuff of Hollyw
 ood movies.\n\nAdmission is free and light refreshments will be available.
