Korean War - Frostbite - Purple Heart Question

Comments: Hi -

I've been trying to gather information regarding Purple Heart medal awards for Korean War frostbite victims and was hoping that someone might be able to help.

My dad suffered from frostbite to his feet and was evacuated through a number of US Army field hospitals during the Korean War. Although he (luckily) did not suffer loss of limb from this experience, he did receive a medical disability from the VA when he left the service.

I have been told that some Korean War veterans HAVE received a Purple Heart for their frostbite injuries; however, current military award regulations indicate that frostbite is NOT a qualifying injury. Perhaps the regulations simply changed over the years, I'm not sure...

The big question is: Was frostbite considered a qualifying injury for the Purple Heart medal during the Korean War(?).

Like a lot of Korean War veterans, he never received any kind of recognition--even though he came away from the service with a physical disability. I'd like to apply for this award on his behalf, if possible.

If there are any Korean War veterans who have been in a similar situation, I sure would love to get some feedback on this, it would be helpful.

Thanks -
