    You can also contact the Korean War Veterans Association
    (<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.kwva.org/">http://www.kwva.org/</a>) to send out message to locate any veteran who
    may have known your grandfather. It'll be useful to provide his
    unit, as specific as possible (regiment, battalion, company), and
    dates of his service in the Marines as well as in Korea. Also, the
    Purple Heart Association could be of help

                    could get specific information about my father's
                    service in the Korean War.  He was in the Marines
                    and was injured.  I have a picture of him receiving
                    a Purple Heart while recuperating in a hospital in
                    Japan in October 1952.
