South Korea is currently in the news for providing some 3000 troops to the Iraqi "pacification effort." I would invite you that served in Vietnam to comment on how effective you believe ROK forces will be towards this effort, based on your observations of them in action in Vietnam. My own recollections are of a very active Korean established Black Market and some situations where US forces had to protect the locals from ROK retribution. Who knows, maybe that is what the situation calls for?
