I have only recently begun to learn of the Korean Involvement in the Vietnam War.

I believe they were the Second Largest Foreign Group Operating in Vietnam.

Perhaps only the Australians were Larger. (Other than the U.S. of course)

The ROK Marines are some Bad Ass Hombres.

**** “The ROK Marines are some Bad Ass Hombres.” *****

My (now EX) Brother In-law was a Dr (from the Philippines, but was working for South Korea in Nam) ... was the first case of really bad PSTD that I ever saw. Good man, but very tormented and I hope he is still with us, he actually saved my EX-Wifes Life (I don’t hold that against him)

We occasionally worked with the Korean White Horse Division. They had different rules than us. From what we heard about the incident the squad set up camp overlooking the village – and raising their flag – and their squad leader walked down to the village announcing if one more round was fired they would open up on the village. We still got dirty looks but no more rounds were fired.
