Requesting information

Comments: My father, Richard A. Williams is a Korean War veteran and suffers from Parkinson's Disease. We are trying to piece together his military service record while we still can. The ribbons from my father's uniform shows he was awarded the Purple Heart and the Bronze Star, among others. We can find no citations, and the records from the Army do not show these two awards. Dad's memory is clearly fading. He mentions about being severely wounded on Dagmar Hill in December, 1951, regained consciousness in a field hospital before being transferred to a hospital in Pusan, then Sasebo, Japan then on to Hickam Air Force Base. Dad says that his Purple Heart was pinned to his pillow case when he regained consciousness and that his unit received the Bronze Star and therefore everyone in the unit received it. Can anyone help me please?

He was with H.Q. company second battalion 7th calvery. He passed away when I was 3 and I would love to know more about him. He never told mom much about his war expierance , exept that he was amazed at how intense the emotion of fear could be. We have a few pictures of him and some guys in the field I think dad may have been considered the old man, at the age of 27.
