Through their historical interpretation work Harry & Edna have always been keen to support the various remembrance events. For many years Harry assisted the Pershing Doughboys living history group by becoming part of the honour guard at Brookwood cemetery on Remembrance Sunday and US Veterans day events.

Harry is known for his US Army WW1 impression and in 1999 was awarded the Oregon State medal for his work in preserving the memory of the US Army Doughboy.

The World War I Brookwood American Cemetery and Memorial is located south-west of the town of Brookwood, Surrey, England. This small cemetery of four and a half acres lies within the large civilian cemetery of the London Necropolis Company and contains the graves of 468 American military dead from World War I.

Within the American cemetery the headstones are arranged in four plots, grouped about the flagpole. The regular rows of white marble headstones on the smooth lawn are framed by masses of shrubs and evergreen trees which form a perfect setting for the classic white stone chapel. On the walls within the chapel are inscribed the names of 563 of the Missing in Action, who gave their lives in the service of their country.
