To be recognized as a Korean War veteran, an individual must have served in the military during the conflict, which lasted from June 25, 1950, to July 27, 1953. This includes any service members who were active during this period, whether they were deployed to Korea or served in support roles elsewhere. Some organizations may also recognize service members who were involved in operations related to the Korean War before or after these dates, but the primary recognition is based on the official conflict years.
