The "Korean War Veterans Memorial Wall of Remembrance Act" was signed into law by President Obama on October 7, 2016 and introduced and championed by Rep. Sam Johnson (R-TX), with the support of fellow Korean War veterans, Representatives Charles Rangel and John Conyers. The bill would authorize the creation of a Wall of Remembrance to honor members of the U.S. Armed Forces, the ROK Armed Forces, and other nations of the UN Command who died, were wounded, listed as missing in action, or prisoners of war in the Korean War.
