George Z.Hall-17th Inf,7th div,8th Army,3rd BN Hdg.Co,Field Wireman

Comments: My uncle,George Z. Hall of Charlotte,MI served 18 month in Korea during 1952-1954.He was an enlisted PFC,dob 7-26-1928. He told me this info: 17th Infantry,7th division,8th Army,3rd battalion hdg.co,and he was a field wireman. He received some sort of medal(for bravery I assume) for riding on the front of a jeep holding a wounded man on. I would like info on how I can get his complete military records,and any other info anyone cares to share with me. He tossed his medals overboard on the way home;I assume he wanted to forget what he'd seen at the time,but now family members are interested and I think he regrets having done so.His memory is not good and I need help putting the story all together! I have his social security number and info if needed to get his records.
