    I had to google the Korean Defense Service Medal. Apparently it was approved a couple of years before I got out. If I really wanted to dig through the records and do a boatload of paperwork, I could get it. Maybe some day.

      No, just spent a lot of time guarding them.

        Good to meet you, Sean! The car is even more badass in person.
        Here's a shot of one of the hood vents. I cleaned it up a bit.

            Did some custom painting on the engine plastics, these are the same gunmetal as the hood vents. A buddy airbrushed some rivets on the coil covers for me and I did the flag on the intake cover.

                  I just googled it too. I guess I missed this before. I just submitted an online records request.. Check this out: http://www.dmzwar.com/koreamedalcoldwarcert.html

                  I enlisted 6 months too late for the Cold War Certificate.

                  And that award (KDSM) gives you Veteran's Preference if you didn't already have it:

                  "The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) would like to remind Federal agencies that anyone in receipt of the Global War on Terrorism Expeditionary Medal (for service in Operation Enduring Freedom), Iraq Campaign Medal, Afghanistan Medal, or the Korea Defense Service Medal is entitled to veterans' preference if otherwise eligible.


                  They'll take away my Overseas Service Ribbon and replace it with this..
