I've been hoping to find other Korean War servicemen/women that may have served in the Air Force with my Dad. I've placed his information here in his profile. He's not doing great, and before he passes, I was hopeful to reunite him with someone. If there's anyone with additional websites or connections that I may reach out to, please share...?

My Grandfather, Oscar Ortman, served in Korea as an MP in the Airforce. He passed away in 2021.
Hope you find someone.

Not well known by many, but those who are eligible* for DoD MWR programs can access Fold3* for free though the DoD MWR Libraries*. You can use your EDI (DoD ID Number) or last four of your SSN plus the data of birth for access.
Fold3 is Ancestry.com's military database with over 676 million records veteran related records throughout the various periods of American history. Specific to the Korean War, there are over 92 million records. You should be able to find something about people he served with if you can narrow down the information with units he's served in, locations he was at, etc.
