Description

ARMFTIM8 indicates whether an individual aged 73+, who has ever served in the U.S. Armed Forces, was active-duty during the Korean War from July 1950 to January 1955.

Active duty does not include training for the Reserves or National Guard, but does include activation for service in the U.S. or in a foreign country, in support of military or humanitarian operations. The value of the final annual person weight (WTFA) for active duty military personnel is zero, so they are not included in national (i.e., weighted) estimates.
