I tried for months to get my Korean occupation medals. I received all my medal except 1945 occupation Korea medal. They said there was no Korean medal. I then sent my army tiime and occupation time to my U.S. Senator Debbie Stabenow

two weerks ago and to-day received the Korean Occupation medal and Ribbon.

Here are dates for WW2 Occupation Duty.

Congrats. That is great news. I guess patience and perserverance pays off in the long run. I guess you and I can attest to that.
