Bill > HR234

This bill, the Korean American VALOR Act, amends Title 38 of the United States Code to treat certain individuals who served in the armed forces of the Republic of Korea during the Vietnam War as veterans of the U.S. Armed Forces. This would entitle them to the same hospital, domiciliary care, and medical services within the United States provided by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) as if they had served in the U.S. military. To qualify, the individual must have served in Vietnam as a member of the Korean armed forces between January 9, 1962, and May 7, 1975 (or another period determined appropriate by the Secretary), and have become a U.S. citizen on or after the end of their Korean military service.
