Try the American Legion or Veteran's of Foreign War chapters in your area. There are still a few of the old vets still living.

Don't be surprised if they are reluctant to talk about the war, so the article you are writing or a book had better be interesting and correct to get them to talk. Another option is to visit a Veteran's Nursing Home.
