Quotes

"South Korean and U S authorities concluded that they were multiple rocket launchers rather than missiles given their launch speed, trajectory, and the shape the vehicles" the official said
"There would be thousands of people coming into Korea if a contingency did kick off, and this would be one of the main areas where we would receive all of those personnel and then pass them off to whatever base they’re going to" Wallace said
"The program has been very productive," said White. "I'm tracking close to 500 Soldiers who have gone through the process this year and I expect to see about 300 more come through before the end of the year."
"Today the Republic of Korea serves as model for other nations who seek freedom, justice and democracy," said Gentry. "And as this memorial hall demonstrates, your sacrifices will never be forgotten."
