About This Collection

Serial number indexes and compensation application batch sheets from the Pennsylvania Korean War Bonus Program. These records provide a listing of those who were recipients of the Korean War bonus, and therefore a listing of Pennsylvanians who served in the Korean War. While they are the most complete records of Korean War veterans in the archives, they are not fully inclusive as some veterans may not have applied for the bonus. They provide the veterans name, serial number, number of months of domestic and foreign service, and occasionally the home address of the recipient. A serial number is necessary to search these records. The original bonus files no longer exist. This collection is part of the Department of Military and Veterans Affairs which is responsible for administering the Pennsylvania National Guard, and administers various programs of assistance to veterans.
