NEW HOLLAND, Pa. — An intermediate school history project has brought an Eastern Lancaster Countystudent face to face with “the Forgotten War.”

Danny Gingerich, 13, an eighth-grader in Ned Beck’s history class at Pequea Valley Intermediate School needed to interview a veteran and report on it for a project. He found a fascinating storyteller in Sam Stoltzfus, a Korean War veteran from Morgantown who now lives at Garden Spot Village.

“I had gotten to know Sam Stoltzfus from talking to him here,” said Danny’s mother, Veronica Gingerich, life enrichment assistant at Garden Spot Village in NewHolland. When the project came up, “I looked in the Veterans Book in the Archives Room here at Garden Spot Village and saw that Sam was in there with some information about his service.”
