Are there sholarships for descendants of Korean War veterans?


Question:
I am going into my senior year in high school and want to go to college after that. I ran across a scholarship for descendants of Vietnam veterans, but I don't have any Vietnam veterans in my family. But my grandfather did serve in the USMC during the Korean War, and fought in some gruesome battles like Chosin Reservior. Also, my uncle served in the Army Special Forces, but I don't think he was ever in combat. So are there any special scholarships available for me?

Answer:
the links provided by previous answers would do great, if you have troubles looking there, contact your local DAV (disabled american vetrans), VFW (vetrans of foreign wars), American Leigon, PVA (paralyzed vetrans association), etc. they may be able to lead you in the right direction, or even if your grandfather was a member or eligible for membership in any of the organizations, you could qualify for grants or scholarships from the organization itself. and if it was your mother or father that is a vet, under some special circumstances you may qualify for the GI BIll.
