KEENE â Conrad Perreault, of Keene, a member of the Korean War Veterans Association, is looking for Korean War and Korean service veterans to help organize a state chapter of the KWVA.
Of about 20,000 KWVA members and 235 chapters, New Hampshire is one of the few states without a chapter.
The Korean War didnât end, but the fighting was stopped with only a cease-fire. Technically, even though it has been 57 years since the last battle was fought, North and South Korea are still at war.
Today, there are more than 25,000 U.S. soldiers stationed in South Korea.
Nearly 6 million members of the military served from 1950-53, and fewer than 2 million are alive today.
For more information, e-mail Perreault at cjperreault@myfairpoint.net or call 352-5369.
