Military.com should have a search by name\nClick on Buddy Finder\n\nSometimes members choose NOT to have their information made available; if they did you won't be able to see them unless you join.

Do a search for VA in St Louis.  They have may different offices there.  That is were all records are kept after a soldier discharges or retires from service.  Try VA medical records.

Go to \nhttp://www.archives.gov/veterans/military-service-records/get-service-records.html\n\nand fill out Form DD214. I think you have to be a relative. I did it for my father's Navy records. It took about 5-6 months, but it was worth the wait.

I would try the moving pictures branch at the National Archives.  They have all the footage taken by government agencies and newsreels made during the war.\nThe archives also has all correpsondence relating to POW's in its collection.  \nThe historical records of the 1st cavalry records for the Korean War are in the collection of the National Archives too.  I have examined them for the period that you mentioned.  Send me a P/M and I will try and get copies to you.  I have a relative that was in company E, 8th Cavalry and is MIA since 3 September 1950.
