Finding out about my grandfather?

[BELOW270]

Hello all.
My grandfather served in the Marine Corps in Korea and no one in my family can remember what rank he retired as, the medals he had etc.
The same with my great grandfather who served in WWII.

Where can I find out more about them? Is there a website that I can go on to look up the info?

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

"THIS IS A MILITARY RECORDS REQUEST" It used to be you had to be the Vet, but now next of kin can also request the records--
Good luck in finding the Records "Wayne"

And by the way, your family (parents) should be ashamed of themselves.
Their service to our country should be honored and be a source of pride for your family. Clearly, your dad did not serve. Come back and tell us what you found out. We appreciate their service and sacrifice.
