“... if he was in, or associated with the US military”.
With hair that long? Does the military allow longer hair styles for men? (I truly don’t know the answer but I have only seen the military with short hair)
I’m thinking the guy was associated with AAFES (the BX) or a contractor who works for the US government. I would imagine that the US military is looking for this guy and he will be turned over to the Koreans.
