JESSICA MEIR, SWEDISH AMERICAN OF THE YEARIn 2020 NASA Astronaut Jessica Meir was honored for two prominent awards in Sweden: Swedish American of the Year by the Vasa Order of America and Honorary Doctor of Technology by the Luleå Technical University. Both of these awards were handed over to Jessica Meir in Luleå, situated in Northern Sweden, in November 2021.
In connection with a banquet for the honorary doctors, Jessica Meir was honored both by the Vasa Order of America and the university. About 300 hundred guests applauded her when the Vasa Order of America representative Catherine Bringselius Nilsson shared some words with Jessica Meir while handing over the insignia of the Award: a golden plaque and a diploma. Vasa Order representative Göran Nilsson presented her with greetings from the Swedish King Carl Gustaf and the Ambassador of the Embassy of Sweden in Washington, D.C.

VOLVO MUSEUM, GOTHENBURGMember Arne Dunhem of Drott Lodge visited the Volvo Museum in Gothenburg in August 2022. There are about 100 exhibits of various Volvo's on display – which one is your favorite? If you also visit it, you will probably find your favorite Volvo model among Volvo’s passenger cars but there is so much more to show you. They have trucks, buses, construction equipment, industry- and marine engines and even aircraft engines. Colors and design, technology and history – all in a mixture that will trigger memories and feelings among our visitors. Enjoy the slide show with some pictures here from the museum! |
