I was heading into Fort Belvoir today and saw a car with both an "IRAQ, I served" and a "KOREA, I served", sticker. I told my wife, damn, this guy has been around forever, and so I pulled up along side to see this impressive individual. He looked maybe 25. I realized after, that he probably served in Korea recently.
Your thoughts on having a "KOREA, I served" for serving in Korea now?

Sticker should say " KOREA - I survived the Soju experience and didn't get caught off post past curfew" ;o)

I served 2 years in Korea and I am proud of that service, and there is no way in hell I would put anything announcing that in my window. My only stickers of or about my military service are the new Army bumper sticker and two window decals that I have received from the American Legion. Simplicity is best.

While I think it's in bad taste, the Korean War technically ended with an armistice that only was a negotiated, extended "cease fire." Not a "peace treaty." That would mean the two nations are still at war.
Those technicalities out of the way, I think it's not in the best taste. Everyone thinks of the most active hostilities of the "Korean War era" as 1950 - 1953.

Too bad you didn't take a picture of it. I've never seen that sticker.
I've been on orders twice for Korea and both times they were deleted, with no explanation. I've always wanted to do a tour there.

I served in Korea in the early eighties Kunsan AB. Although a sticker saying I served in Korea I would think would relate to the Korean war in the 50's.
Peace!
Peace!

OK, true story. I was on a Coast Guard cutter right off the coast of Granada in 1983 (hopefully I'm not divulging any classified information) at the time of our invasion. I was on the bridge looking at the radar and we could see an aircraft carrier battle group (The Independence) along with a bunch of other vessels bearing down on us. It was quite a thing to see actually. We contacted them and were basically told to get the F out of Dodge! No one remembered to contact the CG apparently, ya know the folks that patrol these areas every day! lol.
Long story short...I have decided to not put a "Granada - I served" bumper sticker on my car! I think it was the correct decision ;)
