REGINA – A Korean War veteran living in Regina is disappointed after someone spray-painted obscene graffiti on the east side of the cenotaph in Victoria Park.
Ken Garbutt says the people who did it are “idiots” and the act is sacrilegious.
The City of Regina has since cleaned it up, but Garbutt is not impressed.

Garbutt maintains there should be stiffer penalties for people who deface war memorials.
He suggests the responsible party be forced to clean it up themselves to the satisfaction of the city.
He’d also like them to be forced to attend all military ceremonies in Regina for at least five years.
“Our cemetery, the U.N. cemetery, is in Busan (City, South Korea) and you never hear of anything of this nature. They are kept in the best shape possible,” said Garbutt.
