Filip Konowal

1888-1959

Filip was born in Ukraine in 1888 and immigrated to Canada before the first world war. He fought for Canada in World War 1 and took out 16 of the enemy.

Filip was awarded

the Victoria Cross 

for his efforts and

courage. This

is the highest

honour a Canadian 

could recieve.

He will be remembered by not only Ukrainians but also Canadians for fighting for our protection regardless of his origination. He fought for our protection and will forever be remembered for his courage.

Take a moment to thank all that have fought for our safety and have given their lives to save ours.

Lest we forget.
