A veteran is considered anyone that has served in the armed forces. Anyone that came back from Korea would have been a Veteran of the Korean War. Once one has received a discharge from the armed forces, they are a veteran.

Why did the military pay Korean soldiers in scriptt?
I never heard of korean soldiers being paid in US script......in 1951 US scrip (not script) was used in the Korean War to pay soldiers, and it was the currency at the bases.

From there it would be eventually transferred to Japan and back to the States.

Lincoln on veterans treatment?
Lincoln was assassinated when the war was just ended; he had no time to tend to the business of veterans...he was fighting the war. However, the US Civil War (1861-1865) did create one of the first "Soldiers Homes" for veterans, along with one of the nations first veterans groups...GAR (Grand Army of the Republic), which died out in the 1930's with most of the Civil War vets. The VFW is our nations oldest vet groups now, created in 1899 by Spanish-American War veterans (the Spanish-American war of 1898 was the US's FIRST foreign war).
