  • Reserve Lieutenant Ferdinand Verleyen
    1 RESERVE-LIEUTENANT FERDINAND VERLEYEN 18th REGIMENT OF THE LINE Ferdinand Verleyen served during the First World War as a Reserve-Lieutenant in the Belgian 18th Regiment of the Line. Details about his service career and personal information, is very limited and it is not possible to fully complement the life history of this gallant Belgian soldier. Perhaps if it was possible to access archival material about him from Belgian sources then perhaps the information would be more forthcoming. It would be helpful if the date of his birth was known or more information relating to him joining the army. Ferdinand Verleyen (Date When The Original Black & White Photograph Was Taken Unknown) 2 It is known that after the First World War he was living in Etterbeck, Belgium where most probably he was born. Etterbeek is one of the nineteen municipalities in the Brussels-Capital Region of Belgium. It neighbours the municipalities of the City of Brussels, Ixelles, Audergham, Woluwe-Saint-Pierre, Woluwe-Saint-Lambert and Schaerbeek. In common with all the Brussels municipalities, it is legally bilingual – French and Dutch. The first documented reference to Etterbeek is the building of a church in the 8th century. The name has Celtic roots, ‘ett’ meaning ‘rapid movement and the Dutch word ‘beek’ meaning ‘stream’ is recorded on a document dated 1127. Its current spelling dates from 1138 when construction on a new church began. In the Middle Ages, Etterbeek was a rural hamlet independent from Brussels except from a beer tax given to Brussels circa 1300 by John II, Duke of Brabant.

  • President Yoshihiro Hasegawa Awarded Commander of the Order of Leopold II by Kingdom of Belgium
    Harima Chemicals News June 13, 2018 President Yoshihiro Hasegawa awarded Commander of the Order of Leopold II by Kingdom of Belgium We are pleased to announce that Yoshihiro Hasegawa, the President of Harima Chemicals Group was awarded Commander of the Order of Leopold II by King Philippe of Belgium. The awards ceremony was held at the Belgium Embassy in Tokyo on June 12, where President Hasegawa received the honor from Ambassador of Belgium to Japan Gunther Sleeuwagen. Harima Chemicals Group operates its flagship plant, LAWTER-Kallo, in the Antwerp region in Belgium. Since its launching in 1996, the manufacturing process has been continuously modernized and in 2015, dedicated tanks to store tall oil rosin transported from SunPine AB of Sweden were added to ramp up production capacity. The award was bestowed in recognition of the fact that the group has contributed to stabilizing employment and expanding the chemical industry in the country over the years. Furthermore, the group has managed the consortium AMBER*1 in collaboration with several parties, such as KU Leuven and the University of Antwerp, as well as VITO (a Flemish research organization) as part of its initiative to extend academic support proactively, which was also recognized. *2 Encouraged by the honor, we will continue plant operations that give utmost consideration to safety and the environment in a bid to contribute to bolstering economic ties with the Kingdom of Belgium further. *1) Acronym for Alternative Materials for Bio-based Resins. A research project to make use of glutamic acid derived from biodiesel conducted from 2014 to 2016.

  • RCEME Honours, Decorations, and Medals V4
    COC / RCOC (E) / RCEME / LORE / LEME / EME Honours, Decorations, and Medals by Major (Ret’d) Douglas C. Knight, CD with Colonel (Ret’d) Murray C. Johnston, MSM, CD version 4 – 2019 Note: unless otherwise stated, all persons listed in this document were members of the Royal Canadian Electrical and Mechanical Engineers (RCEME) and its predecessors, the Canadian Ordnance Corps (COC) and Royal Canadian Ordnance Corps (Engineering Branch) (RCOC (E)), the Land Ordnance Engineering Branch (LORE), the Land Electrical and Mechanical Engineering Branch (LEME), and the Electrical and Mechanical Engineering Branch (EME). Used generically, the term RCEME includes all these predecessors. COC / RCOC (E) / RCEME / LORE / LEME / RCEME Honours and Awards Authors’ Note This is a work in progress. Our intention is to record the medals and honours awarded to the officers and non-commissioned personnel of RCEME, and its predecessor RCOC (E) and successors LORE, LEME, EME, and RCEME again. As with any work of this nature, it will never be completed, because members of RCEME will undoubtedly continue to receive awards for valour or service. What is Included There is always the difficulty of what awards and medals to include, and which to exclude. Version 1 included only the awards listed by Veteran’s Affairs, Canada, or the DND Honours List, which excluded many command and unit commendations that were currently being awarded. Version 2 adds additional awards, such as Command Commendations, DGLEPM awards and the Director RCEME’s Coin of Excellence. Undoubtedly, some awards are still not included, and this in no way reflects on the merit of those awards, which are well deserved by the individuals that receive them, but is due to limitations of space, and in particular, access to the information.
