BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE 

Currently, the federal government officially identifies the actions and
struggles in Korea as the Korean War.  Veterans of the battles in Korea
have urged that the struggle be formally recognized as a war. S.B. 641
changes the reference to the Korean Conflict in the Transportation Code to
the Korean War.
