interview with past leaders

As the 2nd Infantry Division/ROK-U.S. Combined Division prepares to celebrate a “Century of Second to None,” our Leader’s Corner column will recognize past Warrior Division Soldiers. Each month leading up to our 100th Birthday in October, the Indianhead will pay tribute to the great leaders who have helped make this Division “Second to None!”

Maj. Gen. John W. Morgan III served as the 2nd Infantry Division’s Commanding General from November 2007 to October 2009. Prior to that he served as Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the I Corps at then Fort Lewis, Washington. Following his time with our Warrior Division, he served as the commander of NATO’s Allied Force Command in Heidelberg, Germany, from May 2010 to March 2013.

“The 2nd Infantry Division has a proud and honorable history that reflects the essence and the heart of the American Soldier. We are known for our highly disciplined units and Soldiers who are trained to standard and prepared to conduct intelligence-driven full spectrum deliberate combat operations. We are a division that is proud of its heritage, accomplishments, contributions and the differences it has and will continue to make.”

Lt. Gen. John Clifford Hodges Lee (August 1, 1887 – August 30, 1958) was a US Army general.

He graduated 12th out of 103 graduates from the United States Military Academy in 1909. He served in World War I, World War II and rose to the rank of lieutenant general. He served as the commanding general for 2nd Infantry Division from November, 1941 until the reorganization of the Army in May, 1942

“It is planned to assign you without regard to color or race to the units where assistance is most needed, and give you the opportunity of fighting shoulder to shoulder to bring about victory....” Maj. Gen. John C.H. Lee, 2nd Infantry Division commander during WWII, challenging army policy in regards to integration of African-American Soldiers into his unit.

C haplain ’ s corner Include faith in your new year BY Chaplain (Lt. Col.) MOON 2ID/RUCD Chaplain

KIM

Happy New Year! What do you see in 2017? How would you like to start this New Year? Is it just another year or a year where you’ve been assigned or deployed to ROK? What do you want to accomplish by the time you leave this great country? How about making 2017 the best year of your life – isn’t that a good new year’s resolution? You may ask yourself what you can do in Korea, particularly in Area 1 to make this the best year despite being away from home, your family and close friends. Having been to three combat deployments, I’ve learned a truly important thing about life -- it’s short and precious.

Most of you are here for a year and some of you may stay longer. I’d like to share with you how I will begin and live this blessed New Year – a year God has given us. As you all know and heard many times, Comprehensive Soldier Fitness means physical, emotional, family, social and spiritual well-being. How about exercising all five areas: 1. Getting in shape: “Staying fit and healthy” is something that over a third of the U.S. population wishes to achieve. You are in the “fight tonight” Division – isn’t this the best and most important place to keep in shape. My goal is to max the next APFT in May, and in order for me to reach this, I take every PT session seriously, making the most out of it.

2. Keep in touch with family: Family is what keeps us focused. We live in such a technologically advanced society here in the most connected country in the

world. We can be connected as often as we want. Isn’t it awesome being assigned to Korea – compared to Iraq and Afghanistan, where the connection is not that good? So make the most of it.

3. Learn to be happier with your life: It takes time and patience to learn how to find joy in the little things and not to let problems bring you down. In other words, we are in the best place in 2017. Once we believe it, then we will be satisfied. Once we’re satisfied, we can help others to be happy.

4. Volunteer: Devoting your time and energy to help those in need is a noble gesture and a reward in itself, but it is also an opportunity to boost your social fitness. There are many volunteer opportunities i.e. BOSS, orphanage visit, etc.

5. How about the spiritual dimension? Like deployment – this is the best year to exercise your faith, for it’s a New Year. The Bible says – “Behold the old has gone, but new has come”. This is what I believe and how I exercise my faith to be as strong as possible in the Lord.

Therefore, please stick to the good, healthy habits you’ve developed. Lastly, the most important point to mention is that all the positive changes you make have to be permanent. You will need to work on sticking with the good habits you have adopted until they become a natural part of your life. That is how you achieve true self-improvement.

Well, there you have it – an extensive list of advice, tips and tricks to help you see your New Year’s resolution through and make some long-term changes in your life. I wish you all a Happy New Year.

health of our force BY Lt. Col. Christopher 2ID/RUCD Surgeon

By this point, all of us in 2ID/RUCD have received our flu shots. We have taken the steps we can to ensure that we are ready for the flu season. Many of us took leave over the holidays, and those of us who didn’t had half-day schedules to provide us with time to focus on ourselves and our families. We are now in the busiest part of the year with upcoming exercises, which also happens to be the height of flu season.

This year’s flu season in Korea is shaping up to be the worst in several years. By the end of December, Korea already had a spike in the number of flu cases equal to the peak of the past several years.

Traditionally flu cases peak in February. With the current trend, we are looking at a much more severe year than the past several.

Please don’t mistake me for an Alabama fan, but I must quote that great football coach Bear Bryant who said, “Everyone has the will to win. Not everyone has the will to prepare to win.” He understood that success on the field comes from hard work off the field. By getting your flu shots, you put in the preparation to win and make it through the year without catching the flu; however, there are also things that you can do now while you are on the field to ensure that you win.

First, wash your hands before meals, after using the bathroom and after touching your face. Remembering to wash after using the bathroom is easiest, but the other two times are as important. When people eat, their hands touch their food and their utensils that touch their food. If your hands had been in touch with the flu virus, this is an excellent opportunity for that virus to enter your body. We also notice that our noses run when we go outside in this cold weather causing many of us to wipe or blow our noses. When this happens, be sure to wash your hands. Even if you do not have symptoms of the flu, you can have the virus in your body, and your nose and mouth concentrate it making it pos-

sible to spread to others.

The other technique for winning the game is to seek care as soon as you notice symptoms. Many of us seem to think that we can “tough it out.” We think that this is a technique for winning; however, this is responsible for many lost games. While someone is toughing it out, that person remains contagious and spreads the illness to others. If you notice symptoms, seek care. If you are a leader and notice your subordinates are not feeling well, send them to care.

Together, we can win this game and prevent the flu from entering our ranks, so we are truly ready to Fight Tonight!

THE INDIANHEAD

Nothing screams ‘fight to like 5,800 Warriors stron COMMENTARY BY Sgt. 1st Class JASON STADEL PHOTOS BY Mr. Pak, Chin-U 2ID/RUCD PUBLIC AFFAIRS

More than 5,800 Warrior Division Soldiers proudly snagged their place in history as they gathered on Indianhead Field at Camp Casey, Dec. 21, to create a living representation of the 2nd Infantry Division/ROK-US Combined Division patch.

This was the third time in the Division’s 99 years that the living insignia was created. It was first done in 1925 at Fort Sam Houston, Texas, and in 2009 and now 2016 in South Korea.

As the division prepares for its 100th anniversary celebration, our commander Maj. Gen. Ted Martin and leadership seized the symbolic opportunity to re-

create the massive Indianhead for the first time as a ROK-US combined division.

The “combined division” tab was added, and the entire patch included U.S. and ROK Soldiers as well as KATUSAs. This years patch also included rotational unit warriors. In 2009 there was still an organic 2nd Infantry Division brigade combat team, but since the BCT inactivation, the division’s armor brigade combat team mission has been executed

by U.S.-based elements on nine-month rotations to the peninsula. For the 2016 insignia, Soldiers from 1st Armored Brigade Combat Team, 1st Infantry Division joined our ranks, but they also first created their own unique “Big Red One” patch with their KATUSAs, signifying their tour here.

The creation of the 2016 living insignia started with months of planning. The task came down in late summer and demanded that warriors from across the division down to the company-level and our ROK counterparts work together in a way that reflected the combined nature of this great unit and our Second To None ability to execute the mission. It was far more than just having Soldiers

show up to stand on a field for a quick photo. These warriors came from all over the peninsula, wearing unique uniforms, ready to play their part in the massive undertaking. Transportation had to be arranged, aviation assets were used, the design layout had to be calculated, etc. Each major subordinate command had its own role and responsibility for the creation. Everything was thought out, war gamed, and rehearsed down to the smallest detail.

A variation of Army combat uniforms, Army Service Uniforms and physical fitness uniforms were authorized by our leaders. It’s often very hard for Soldiers to break traditional uniform standards, but the division leadership did this so Soldiers in the photo could stay warm and comfortable as possible, while forming the colors in the patch.

As “game day” kicked off, there was a worry that a low-lying morning fog would interfere with the photo, and in fact, there are no aerial photos of the Big Red One patch because of fog, but the fog in the final BRO patch photo made it all the more memorable. By the time the Indianhead patch began to take shape the fog moved off

and the skies had cleared. The project went off without a major hitch.

There were a few grumbles as we built the giant insignia. For all of us who wear the uniform, we know that’s what Soldiers do and have done since 1775, but I’d bet all 5,000 plus of them have also told and will continue to tell their battle buddies, Families, and friends about the day they stood in the star or the feather or the Combined Tab or on the left side of the patch 22 people up and 13 in. It’s something few can say.

In the end, the living patch became part of Warrior Division history. The photos and “shout outs” will be used throughout the next year to assist in celebrating the upcoming 100th anniversary, and for centuries to come as the warriors who follow in our footsteps look back at that moment in December of 2016 in South Korea. It’s also a symbolic representation of the alliance between the Combined Division and our ROK military partners. Every day in Warrior Country is a new mark in our history. It may take time for some to realize it, but for the more than 5,800 ROK and U.S. Soldiers in the photo, being a part of the living patch means they will always be “Second to None.”

‘Diehard’ Soldiers Crowned Champs at ‘Fight Night’

STORY BY Staff Sgt. Warren W. Wright Jr. 1st ABCT, 1st Inf. Div. Public Affairs

CAMP CASEY, South Korea – Throughout November and December, ten teams from across the 2nd Infantry Division/ROK-US Combined Division took to the mat to see who would earn the ultimate title of champion during the “Fight Night” combative tournament held here.

After five nights of fighting and 60 individual bouts, spread over the course of more than five weeks, one team emerged victorious and was crowned champions of the tournament Dec. 29.

The seven-fighter team from the 1st Engineer Battalion, 1st Armored Brigade Combat Team, 1st Infantry Division, came out on top after an impressive showing during the competition.

The final round pitted the “Diehard” Soldiers from 1st Eng. Bn. against fellow “Devil” brigade Soldiers from “Hamilton’s Own” 1st Battalion, 5th Field Artillery Regiment.

While the Soldiers from “Hamilton’s Own” fought hard and with a lot of passion, the “Diehard” team won the night after winning five out of the seven bouts of the evening with a final score of 35-15.

“It takes a lot of courage to step out on the mat and test your mettle as a fighter,” said Col. Timothy Hayden, the commander of the 1st

ABCT, 1st Inf. Div. “I’m really proud of all the fighters. Whether they won or lost, they all walked away as victors.”

During most of the tournament the competition limited Soldiers to only grappling styles, but the final bout increased the challenge by introducing intermediate rules which allowed for open hand slaps to the face, punches to the body, torso and legs, and kicks and knees while standing.

“It was a completely phenomenal effort by the ‘Diehard’ battalion,” said Lt. Col. Scott Miller, the battalion’s commander. “It was a great effort across the entire team to put this together; and for them to come out and win is just icing on the cake.”

After the final heavyweight fight concluded, and all of the scores were tallied, Hayden came to the center of the mat to present the “Diehard” team with the victory trophy, officially signifying their rise to the top as the new champions.

“It’s awesome,” said 1st Lt. Steve Kerns, a platoon leader with 1st Eng. Bn. and a competitor in the light heavyweight division. “We kind of just started this for fun. Coming out here, we proved that we have the best guys and the best

training partners.”

In addition to the fighters and the event coordinators, hundreds of spectators were also on hand to witness the championship event.

Each team had numerous supporters watching from the sidelines, cheering on their teams in hopes for a victory.

“For me, the best part of being involved was the turn out for the fighters,” said Sgt. 1st Class Jeffrey Coots, the 1st ABCT, 1st Inf. Div.’s medical noncommissioned officer in charge, and one of the event coordinators. “While they were giving it all on the mats, the fans were there to cheer them on. Being able to bring in fighters from all over, with different backgrounds, and provide them with the support to help their drive and passion was rewarding.”

Planners are now expecting to make “Fight Night” a quarterly event that will include teams from the Combined Division and also invite other units on the peninsula to compete.

UPDATE: ESSENTIAL UNIT MESSING ARTICLE BY Lt. Col. TERRY D. BRANNAN 2ID/RUCD ASST. CHIEF OF STAFF C!/G1

Essential Unit Messing (EUM) with Assignment Incentive Pay for Operational Deployments (AIP-OD) in Field Duty Status ... What a mouthful of words and new Army Acronyms. So what does it all mean for you as a Soldier serving in Korea on a Rotational Deployment now?

The quick and easy answer is that, as of December 1, 2016, Soldiers on a rotational TDY deployment under EUM serving in a field duty status to the U.S. Army Pacific area of responsibility are authorized to receive $195.00 per month as part of the Assignment Incentive Pay for Operational Deployments in Field Duty Status pilot program.

This is an additional $90.00 per month more than the $105.00 monthly Incident Expense (IE). The $195.00 per month is paid immediately as a monthly installment versus when the IE was paid at the end of the Deployment.

Maj. Gen. Ted D. Martin, 2nd Infantry Division/ROK-US Combined Division commander and Command Sgt. Maj. Edward W. Mitchell, the 2ID/ RUCD CSM, along with the division’s food service Soldiers, work very hard and are committed to making the dining experience at our facilities top-notch for all Soldiers in Korea. Having Soldiers on rotational deployments eat in the dining facility is the best option to ensure that they are able to eat nutritious meals and are ready to “Fight Tonight” and Win. But whate exactly do these acronyms mean. What is Essential Unit Messing?

EUM is a policy that requires dining facilities to provide three healthy meals for all Soldiers deployed to Korea as part of a rotational unit. Under EUM, Soldiers receive BAS and then pay $10.45 per day for all three meals (deducted automatically on your Leave and Earnings statement). In the same way field rations do, this ensures Soldiers have access to healthy meals to keep them fit to

Fight Tonight and Win! And what is Assignment Incentive Pay for Operational Deployments (AIPOD)? AIP-OD is a financial incentive for specifically identified operational deployments to provide a special payment in recognition of the greater than normal rigors of the arduous duty involving long deployments and the repetitive nature of operational force rotational assignments. The $195.00 per month is an additional entitlement to the Hazardous Duty Pay-Location, Family Separation Pay and Basic Allowance for Subsistence.

Will I “lose” my BAS? No Soldier will lose their BAS. It is a monthly entitlement meant to offset the costs for a Soldier’s meals, not as a supplement to a Soldier’s income. Soldiers do not have their BAS taken away. It is our responsibility to provide the best care possible for our Soldiers and that includes nutritious meals.

Soldiers’ living quarters only have a common area for food preparation and Soldiers are not authorized the shipment of household goods, so food purchase, storage and preparation are a challenge. Most of the food establishments that are easily accessible to Soldiers cost more than a meal at the dining facility (DFAC). These fast food restaurants often do not provide the balanced meal Soldiers need to stay healthy and ready. EUM provides three full and healthy meals per day at a discounted rate of just $10.45.

Will I “lose” money by having to utilize the DFAC? Taking into account all of the entitlements Soldiers deployed to Korea receive, there is a net gain for all Soldiers in pay. This includes the cost of their meal as well. Please see the Korea Rotational Unit Entitlements charts for more details.

For more information on Essential Unit Messing please see the May 2016 issue of the Indianhead located at http://www.2id.korea.army.mil/news/indianhead/pdf/2016/may2016.pdf.

Tax Season prep:

 

Navigate the 2017 Tax Season with Help from Tax Centers ARTICLE BY Capt. CHRISTOPHER C. STECKBAUER 2ID/RUCD LEGAL ASSISTANCE ATTORNEY

Another year has begun, and with it comes yet another tax season. Area I Soldiers, retirees, DoD civilians, and dependents can take comfort in knowing that the Area I Tax Centers will be offering free tax preparation services.

The Tax Centers will be located at Camp Casey and Camp Red Cloud (CRC), with mobile tax teams servicing Camp Stanley and the Joint Security Area (JSA).

Last year, the Area I Tax Centers saved eligible clients over $200,000 in tax preparation fees, and most Soldiers and eligible clients are actually able to obtain tax refunds. In fact, Area I Tax Centers alone were able to recover $1,556,119.00 in refunds. Each tax preparer is trained and certified by the IRS, guaranteeing quality tax preparation that matches or exceeds any commercial tax preparation service.

When can I file my tax returns?

You can file your tax return as soon as you receive all your tax forms. This year, active duty Soldiers will receive their W-2s in late January.

When will the Area I Tax Centers open?

The Camp Casey Tax Center, located on the 2nd Floor of Maude Hall, will open on Monday, January 30. The CRC Tax Center, located in building S-267 (Housing Office), room 106, will also open on January 30. Mobile tax teams will be visiting Camp Stanley and the JSA beginning in February.

What hours will the tax centers be open?

Both the Camp Casey and CRC Tax Centers will be open Monday through Friday from 0930 to 1700, with the exception of Thursday, when the Tax Centers will open at 1300. The Tax Centers will primarily take clients on an

appointment basis, with walk-ins available as time permits. The Camp Casey Tax Center will be open for walk-ins on Thursday afternoon.

Who is eligible for tax preparation services at the Tax Centers?

Active duty service members, reservists on active duty for more than 29 days, retirees, DoD civilian employees, and dependents are eligible for tax preparation services. Civilian contractors are not eligible for tax preparation services unless they fall into one of the previous categories.

Will it cost me anything to get my tax returns done?

No, tax preparation services through the Tax Centers are free. Our tax preparers are trained to the highest level by the IRS and are able to complete both federal and state tax returns.

Where can I get further information?

For further information, call the Camp Casey Tax Center at DSN 730-4888.

Public Affairs POCHEON, South Korea – The Soldiers of 2nd Battalion, 34th Armor Regiment, 1st Armored Brigade Combat Team, 1st Infantry Division, conducted platform specific gunnery training at the Rodriguez Live Fire Complex, Republic of Korea last month.

During the 30-day training exercise, the “Dreadnaught” Soldiers trained on the battalion’s key armored vehicles, the M1A2 Abrams Tank and the M2A3 Bradley Infantry Fighting Vehicle.

The unit leaderships said the tank and Bradley crews all maintained their qualifications, and continue to be trained, ready, and lethal infantry, armor, and reconnaissance crews to enable multi-echelon collective training at the company level and higher. If called upon, the battalion stands ready to “Fight Tonight” in support of the 2nd Infantry Division/ROK-U.S. Combined Division’s mission to deter regional aggression and maintain peace on the Korean peninsula In addition to the armored crews, the scout and mortar platoons also qualified on their weapon systems. They conducted multiple platform specific gunnery tables in support of the battalion’s contingency force mission.

“For the last five weeks, the battalion has sharpened our gunnery and combined arms maneuver skills at Rodriguez Live Fire Complex,” said Lt. Col. Bryan Harris, the 2-34 AR battalion commander. “This training has ensured that the Soldiers are at the highest levels of readiness and are prepared to accomplish any mission. This training has set the foundation for all the operations we will conduct throughout the rest of our time in Korea.”

Leading up to the gunnery exercise, the “Dreadnaught” Soldiers maximized the opportunities in the virtual training environment. They mastered their crew duties and fire commands with Bradley advanced training system, or BATS, and advanced gunnery training system, or AGTS, on Camp Casey prior to their livefire execution at RLFC. The virtual systems allowed the crews to practice target acquisition and engagement techniques in order to achieve confidence with their platform specific systems prior to conducting collective live fire training.

“The battalion went through a comprehensive training program that included training in simulators, testing on the basic skills required to operate the equipment effectively and safely, and ensuring the battalion is prepared to execute all of our missions,” said Maj. Jacob Kaldor, the 2-34 AR operations officer.

Enablers from multiple echelons were integrated into the training scenarios, which exposed the battalion’s platoon leaders to inorganic assets they can use on the battlefield.

“The integration of engineer assets during the Super Table XII is great value added to our training because it allows (platoon leaders) to get reps on one of our (mission essential task list) tasks and it allows them to build those relationships with enabler-leadership that is essential to the success of combined-arms operations,” said 1st Lt. Juan Quiroz, the battalion engineer.

Additional assets outside of the brigade were also utilized to help create a wide range of capabilities on the simulated battlefield for the battalion.

“Efforts culminated with the Gunnery Table XII, where platoons were able to plan, integrate, and employ organic and attached enablers to include 120 mm mortars, and Kiowa and Apache aviation assets to accomplish our key collective tasks,” said Capt. Matt White, the commander of Company C. “Our mission readiness is confirmed by their actions.”

The battalion’s fires and effects coordination cell, the team responsible for coordinating artillery, air support and other indirect fire support, provided massing fires while integrating surface to surface and air to ground assets in order to enable armored and mechanized Infantry platoons to reach their objective.

“The terrain on the peninsula is not conducive for effective voice and digital communications, but the adaptable fires team leaders in this organization were able to identify issues, troubleshoot, and transmit digital call for fires to the mortars in a timely manner,” said Cpt. Brandon Morse, the battalion’s fire support officer.

“It was a good opportunity to practice volley fire to create shock effect and discord on the enemy,” added 1st Lt. Aaron Beyer, a platoon leader with Company B. “Gunnery was a great experience for me as a driver,” said Pfc. Cody McCartney, a driver assigned to Scout Platoon, Headquarters, Headquarters Company.

“I was able to refine my skills, maneuvering with the platoon, and realized that I could really help my crew by calling out targets that I could see through my driver’s video enhanced.”

For armored crews, conducting the most realistic training possible is a key to success on the battlefield.

“Crew gunnery is the foundation upon which an armored company draws its strength,” said Cpt. Andrew McLellan, the commander of Company A. “The ability to quickly acquire targets and engage with accurate lethal direct fire enables the unit to impose its will against the enemy. The skills refined during our gunnery here at Rodriguez Live Fire Complex support the ‘Fight Tonight’ standard of readiness and further enhance our commitment to the US-ROK alliance.”

Soldiers on the ground and in the tanks and Bradleys also understand the importance of conducting training like the one they have completed over the 30-day exercise.

“Gunnery is a true test of a crew’s proficiency to not only fight their tank, but also to engage and destroy targets,” said Sgt. Stetson Countryman, an M1A2 Abram tank gunner with Company A. “Gunnery at the Rodriguez Live Fire Complex was challenging due to a wide variety of targetry and the terrain of the range.”

The “Dreadnaught” battalion will continue to hone their skills throughout their nine-month deployment to the Korean peninsula as other battalions from the 1st ABCT utilize the ranges at RLFC to maintain their skills as trained and ready armored units.

TO THE STANDARD: CONDITIONING DRILL 1 Conditioning drill 1 consists of five exercises that develop complex motor skills while challenging strength, endurance and mobility at a high intensity. All of the exercises in the drill are conducted at a moderate cadence and performed in the sequence listed.

THE POWER JUMP This exercise reinforces correct jumping and landing, stimulates balance and coordination, and develops explosive strength. Start in a straddle stance with hands on hips. On count one, squat with heels flat to the ground and attempt to touch the ground. Next, jump forcefully into the air, raising arms overhead.

On the third count of the exercise, you land and resume the squat before finally retuning to the starting position.

THE V-UP This exercise develops the abdominal and hip flexor muscles while enhancing balance. Start by lying on the ground with arms 45 degrees out to the side. Your chin is tucked and 1-2 inches off the ground. Do not jerk legs or trunk to rise to the V-up position. On count one, raise your legs and trunk to form a generally V shape, using your arms for support. Return to the starting position for count two. On counts three and four, repeat counts one and two.

THE MOUNTAIN CLIMBER This exercise develops the ability to quickly move the legs to power out of the front leaning rest position. Start in the front leaning rest with the left foot below

the chest and between the arms. On count one, push upward with the feet and quickly change the positions of the legs. On count two, return to the starting position. On count three, repeat the movements in count one. To finish, return to the starting position.

THE LEG TUCK AND TWIST This exercise develops trunk strength and mobility while enhancing balance.

You start seated with trunk straight but leaning backward 45 degrees, arms straight and hands on ground 45 degrees to the rear. Legs are straight, extended to the front, and 8 to 12 inches off the ground. On count one, raise legs while rotating on to the left and draw the knees toward the left shoulder. On count two, return to the starting position. On count three, repeat count one, rotating to the right this time. On count four, return to the starting position. Do not jerk the legs or trunk to achieve the desired end position.

THE SINGLE LEG PUSH-UP This exercise strengthens muscles of the chest, shoulders, arms and trunk.

Raising one leg, while maintaining proper trunk position, makes this an excellent trunk stabilizing exercise. Start in the front leaning rest. On count one, bend the elbows, lowering the body until the upper arms are parallel with the ground while raising the left leg 8-10 inches off the ground. On count two, return to the starting position. For count three, repeat count one, but raise the opposite leg off the ground. On count four, return to the starting position. Do not jerk the leg to prevent injury to the lower back. Keep height of leg straight with the spine.

REVIEW AND PHOTOS BY Pfc. Jung, Won Ki 2ID/RUCD PUBLIC AFFAIRS The word gajungsik’s literal translation is homemade. In Korean culinary context, homemade food usually consists of soup, main dish, side dishes, and rice, and each meal at the Muwol Siktak restaurant is like homemade with one main dish, four side dishes, soup of the day, and rice.

The menu consists of chicken bulgogi, soy sauce shrimp rice bowl, kale vegetable wrap platter, bibimbap, LA galbi, and spicy webfoot octopus wrap platter. The most sought after item at the restaurant is the soy sauce shrimp rice bowl.

The restaurant also offers a series of other meals called “Sull Anju,” which translates to “food that goes with alcohol.” The most popular anju at the restaurant, Bosam, is boiled pork belly with vegetables. Unfortunately, we did not get a chance to try out any anjus because it was still too early for soju.

We did not have trouble getting a seat at the restaurant but then it filled up quickly and by the time we left, a long line had formed outside. The interior of the restaurant is simple and modern and the atmosphere is calm and comforting. It is interesting to note that the restaurant’s furniture is different from that of other typical Korean restaurants, looking more like an American cafe.

The restaurant offers unlimited rice, soup and side dishes, but the soup and side dishes are set by the main dish that you order. With our meal we were given seaweed soup and the side dishes were kimchi, dried seaweed, Korean-style spicy pickle and dried sardines.

We ordered one soy sauce shrimp rice bowl for 10,000 won and one bibimbap for 9,000 won. I was impressed by the fact that the food was served after only 10 minutes, considering how hectic the restaurant was during lunchtime.

As I took my first bite of the soft shrimp, my mouth was filled with fresh flavor of shrimp and soy sauce. The shrimp was not overly salty and was a perfect complement to the warm chewy rice. The variety of ingredients in bibimbap were well seasoned and offered a joyful experience for my palate.

Muwol Siktak restaurant’s location near Gangnam Station makes it a perfect place for having a date or grabbing a quick bite before watching a movie at CGV or Megabox. The diversity and relatively cheap price of the menus guarantee a great experience for anyone trying out the Korean cuisine.

4TH MARINE BRIGADE

5TH MARINE REGIMENT

4TH MARINE BRIGADE

The 4th Brigade was originally formed during World War I as the 4th Marine Brigade.

It served in France as one of the two infantry brigades of the U.S. Army 2nd Infantry Division, and all Marine combat units in World War I were organized under the 4th Marine Brigade.

Following World War I the brigade was deactivated until just before the commitment to the war in Vietnam in 1964.

5TH MARINE REGIMENT

The 5th Marine Regiment was first organized in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, during World War I on June 1917, just before U.S. troops were deployed to France.

The unit was originally assigned to the 1st Infantry Division of the U.S. Army but later reassigned to the 4th Marine Brigade under the 2nd Infantry Division in October. The regiment is most famous for its fierce war efforts, winning nicknames such as “Fighting Fifth,” and “Devil Dog” and is the most highly decorated regiment of the Marine Corps.

The French government awarded the 5th Marine Regiment the Croix de Guerre with two palms and one gilt star for its outstanding feats in Battle of Belleau Wood, Battle of SaintMihiel, Meuse-Argonne offensive, and other defensive campaigns. To remember the legacy and valor of his predecessor, each marine in the regiment wears a Fourragere on his left shoulder of the uniform.

‘데빌’ 여단 장병, 아들과 재회하다

파병은 가족들에게 꽤 힘든 일이 될 수 있다. 사랑하는 이들에게서 떨어져 있어야

고 말했다.

회로 다가왔다.

1보병사단 1 기갑여단 1공병 대대의 포반장인 스테판 리텔 하사(Staff Sgt. Stephen Little)에게 한국으로의 파병은 자신의 아들과 같은 근무지로 배속되는 예상 치 못한 행운과 함께 찾아왔다. 리텔의 아들인 말라키 쥬웰 상병(Spc. Malakki Jewell)은 제18 포병연대 2대대

또한 리텔은 “이제 군대 안에서 함께 있으니, 여러 가지 요령을 상급자의 관점에 서 가르쳐줄 수 있겠다” 고 말했다. 하지만 한반도로 파병되어 있는 기간 동안 두 사람이 함께 시간을 보낸 건 부사관 에 대한 공부나 체력 단련뿐만이 아니다. 리텔은 “때때로 내가 캠프 케이시(Camp Casey)에 갈 때 아들과 함께 점심을 먹

의 아버지보다 1주일 먼저 도착했다. 그때부터 두 사람은 함께 저녁을 먹고 체력 단

주변을 구경시켜 줄 수 있다”고 말했다.

그러나 파병 기간 동안 계급의 차이가 그들의 관계에 큰 영향을 주지는 않았다. 쥬웰은 “일하는 동안에는 아버지를 거의 만나지 못하기 때문에, 평소와 같이 대 한다. 아버지는 정말 다른게 없다”고 말했다.

정말 큰 도움이 되었다”며 “‘이 달의 장병 보드’와 진급 심사를 준비하면서 공부하는

비록 쥬웰은 계급에 연연하지 않았지만, 리텔의 지도와 멘토십은 성공을 거두었

이번은 쥬웰의 두 번째 한국 파병으로 그의 아버지에 대한 존재가 이번 경험을 조 금 색다르게 만들어주고 있다. 또한 쥬웰은 “제 아버지와 함께 파병된 건 꽤 멋진 일이다”며 “지난번 1년 동안 의 파병 이후 한국으로의 두 번째 파병인데, 항상 주변에 있으면서 대화를 나눌 수 있 는 사람인 아버지가 저와 함께 계시다는 게 색다르다”고 말했다. 리텔의 부대는 캔자스의 포트 라일리(Fort Riley, Kansas)에, 쥬웰의 부대는 오 클라호마의 포트 실(Fort Sill, Oklahoma)에 주둔해있는데, 두 사람이 공적인 시간을

달의 군인으로 칭해질 기회를 얻기 위해 경쟁하게 된다. 주웰의 다음 행보는 부사관 이 되기 위한 진급 심사가 될 것이다. 리텔은 그의 아들을 위한 자신의 전례가 쥬웰에게 근면 성실하고 본인의 일에 전 념하는, 뛰어난 리더가 되는 방법을 배우는데 도움이 되기를 바라고 있다. 리텔은 “아들에게 올바른 길을 보여주며 그로 하여금 부사관이 될수 있도록 준 비시키고 부사관으로서 그에게 기대되는 것이 무엇인지를 확실히 주지시키고 있다” 고 말했다.

70 지원대대 연휴 파티를 열다 캠프 케이시 내 워리어 클럽(Warriors Club)의 따뜻한 공기 가 사람들의 얼굴을 어루만졌다. 커다란 크리스마스 트리가 들 어선 연회장이 파티를 위해 아름답게 꾸며져 있었다.

12월 15일, 캠프 케이시의 워리어클럽에서, 제70여단지원 대대의 장병들을 위하여 파티가 열렸다. 노스 케롤라이나(North Carolina)출신이자 210 포병 여단 본부포대 소속 공보병인 제시카 내세리안(Jessica L. Nassirian)병장은 “홀리데이 파티는 연휴 기간동안의 장병들의 사기를 드높여 줍니다.”며, “미군 장병들이 가족과 떨어져 살고 있기 때문에 이 곳 장병들간의 단결력을 높이기 위하여 우리는 홀리데이 파티를 엽니다.”고 말했다. 그 동안 장병들이 민간 복장을 입고 다같이 모여 파티를 즐 길 기회가 많지 않기 때문인지 그들의 얼굴에는 흥분의 기색이 그대로 드러났다. 어떤 이들은 크리스마스 복장으로 차려 입었 으며, 또 어떤 이들은 가족과 함께 오기도 했다. 여러가지의 재미있는 프로그램들이 진행되었다. 준비된 만 찬을 즐긴 후에, ‘못생긴 스웨터 콘테스트’가 열렸다. 춤 대회와

노래 경연이 그 뒤를 따랐다. 장병들이 가장 즐거워 했던 행사 중 하나는 경품 추첨이었다. 모든 장병들은 하나씩의 경품 티켓을 무료로 받았고, 당첨 가능 성을 높이고 싶다면 2장 째부터는 유료로 구매할 수 있었다.

X-BOX나 텔레비전을 포함한 다양한 경품들이 준비되어 있 었다. 진행자가 임의로 뽑은 티켓 번호를 불러줄 때마다 장병들 사이에 환호와 한숨이 동시에 오갔다.

210 포병여단 본부포대의 선임병장인 양건용 병장은 “설마 프린터를 제가 받게 될 거라고는 전혀 예상하지 못했습니다.” 며, “70 대대 여러분 고맙습니다, 저에게 아주 유용하게 쓰일거 예요.”고 말했다. 파티의 마지막 순서로는 댄스 플로어가 있었다. 모두가 음악 에 맞춰 자유롭게 춤을 추며 즐겼다. 이 훌륭한 파티의 배경에는 70여단지원대대 장병들의 적극 적인 협력이 있었다. 자금을 모으려는 내세리안 병장의 노력과 장병들의 참여로 인해 파티를 위한 충분한 자금이 모일 수 있었 다.

일반행정병 이병 이태연

일반행정병 이병 윤재현

안녕하십니까. HSC 중대 이병 정 원기입니다. 논산 육군훈련소에서 제 일 기억에 남았던 순간은 처음으로 군대리아를 먹었을 때입니다. 고기 패티와 딸기잼, 그리고 야채 셀러드 의 조합이 이상하게 생각되긴 했지만 먹어보니까 정말 맛있었습니다. 그런 데 몇일후에 여자친구한테서 쉑쉑버 거를 먹었는데 정말 맛있엇다는 편지 를 받은적이 있습니다. 그후로 부터 는 군대리아가 처음처럼 맛있는거 같 지 않았습니다.

안녕하십니까. HHBN HSC 소속 이병 박상현입니다. 육군훈련소에서 가장 기억에 남는 것은 주말 종교활동입니다. 물론 많은 훈련들도 기억에 남지만 일주 일의 낙이었던 종교활동은 아직 생생합니 다. 많고 고된 훈련 속에서 종교활동은 사 막의 오아시스처럼 저에게 꿀 같은 휴식시 간이자 오락시간 이었습니다. 종교가 없는 저도 쉽게 다가갈 수 있었 고 동기들과 한마음 되어 불렀던 노래와 안무들은 지금도 따라할 수 있습니다.

육군 훈련소와 KTA훈련소에서 받았 던 훈련중에서 제가 가장 생각나는 훈련 은 논산에서 했던 숙영입니다. 그 이유는 밖에서 텐트를 치고 자는것 자체가 새로 운 경험이었고 숙영지까지 가는길에 엄 청 많은 비가 내려 힘들었지만 기억에 오 래남기 때문입니다. 군장을메고 판초우 의를 쓰고 폭우를 헤쳐나가는 것, 전우와 텐트를 같이 치고 그 안에서 자기 전에 아껴두었던 초코바 하나를 먹었던것이 가장 기억에 남습니다. 비가 와서 더 힘든 숙영 훈련이 되었지만 그 만큼 더 생각나 고 기억에 오래 남는 훈련이었습니다.

저는 육군훈련소와 KTA에서 제일 인상 깊었던 경험을 골라 보라고 하면 역시 사격실습 할 때가 아니었나 싶습 니다. 사격할 때마다 좋은 점수를 내지 못해서 분했습니다. 그래도 그 덕분에 사격 열등생이었던 저는 훈련소에 있 던 그 누구보다 많은 실탄을 쏴 볼 수 있었고 교관 분들이 직접 나서서 친절 하게 가르쳐 주셔서 사격 실력이 조금 나아졌습니다. 그런 점에서는 오히려 제가 총을 처음에 잘 못 쐈기 때문에 남 들보다 더 많은 경험을 할 수 있어서 좋 지 않았나 하고 생각합니다.

인- 자기 소개를 부탁드립니다 안- 안녕하십니까. HHBN 지원대 Team 4 선임병장 병장 안진형 입니다. 이렇게 애독하던 미 2사단 잡지인 Indianhead 에 나오게 되어서 영광 입니 다. 인- 부대소개를 부탁드립니다 안- 제가 맡고 있는 부대는 HHBN 지원 대 안에 Division Staff 중에 본부건물인 Freeman Hall 에서 근무하지 않은 섹션 들(PAO, MUSEUM, Div. Chapel)을 담 당하고 있습니다. 인- 지금까지 군대에서 가장 기억에 남 는 에피소드는? 안- 박물관에서 근무 할 때 USFK Sergeant Major Payton 에게 투어를 해 줄 때 입니다. 그 때 CSM 과 SGM 들이 20명 정도 같이 와서 많이 긴장했었습 니다.

병장 안진형 본부대대본부지원중대 선임병장

인- 여태까지 본 미군 중 가장 기억에 남는 사람은? 안- 제가 Team 4 Sr. KATUSA 되고나 서 섹션 순찰 돌았을 때 Division Chapel 에 Lopez 중사 입니다. 제가 봤던 NCOIC 중에 가장 친절하고 겸손하며 유머러스한 분입니다.

인-입대한 뒤 지금까지 가장 긴장됐던 순간은? 안-처음 전입했을 때가 가장 긴장되었 습니다. 내가 앞으로 군생활 할 곳에 선임분들에게 좋은 인상을 주고 실수 를 안하고 싶다고 생각해서 긴장을 많 이 했었습니다. 인- 선임병장으로 일하면서 가장 힘든 점은? 안-잦은 병력이동에 인한 병력 관리 및 보고 입니다. 일일이 인원들의 행방 을 알아야 하고 보고해야하는 선임병 장으로써 업무상 출타가 잦은 섹션들 을 담당하다 보니 그 점이 조금 어려울 때 가 있습니다. 인-부대 내에서 자신의 외모 순위는? 안-팀에서 탑 5 안에 든다고 생각합니 다. 인-전역 후의 계획은? 안- 복학준비를 하고 가족이랑 같이 일본여행을 다녀오려고 합니다. 인- 마지막으로 하고 싶은 말은? 안- 부족함이 많은 저를 잘 따라 주어 서 너무나 고맙고 다들 새해 좋은일만 가득하기를 빕니다.

재희야 안녕~ 부대에 전 입하고 나서 첫번째로 써주 는 편지다! 우리가 여름에 만나서 지 금까지 참 많은 시간을 같이 보냈는데 난 재희 만날때마 다 내가 몰랐던 새로운 매력 을 찾아내는거 같아. 우리가 비록 여름에 둘다 학생신분으로 만나고 지금 나는 군인이어서 옛날처럼 서로 많이 만나지는 못하지 만 매주 같이 보낼수 있는 하루, 이틀이라도 나는 매우 감사해! 내가 늘 말하듯이 앞으로 도 재희가 기댈수 있는 멋 있는 남자로 성장할게. 우리 계속 이쁜 연애하자. 나란 남자친구 사랑해줘 서 너무 고마워요!

From. 원기

자기! 우리 편지를 다른 사 람들이 다 읽는다고 생각하니 까 부끄럽지만 그래도 우리의 추억이 하나 또 쌓여가는 것 같아 기분이 좋아. 입대한다고 한지가 어제 같 은데 시간이 이렇게 지나서 우 리가 만난지도 오래된 것 같 아. 나는 항상 자기한테 고맙고 든든한 남자친구가 되어주어 서 너무 행복해. 나를 지금처 럼만 사랑해줘. 우리가 롱디라서 힘든점도 많겠지만 더 애틋해 질 수 있 는 기회라고 생각해. 우리의 사랑으로 서로에 대 한 믿음으로 연애 초기의 풋풋 함으로 이 모든 시련과 역경을 이겨내고 자기 전역할 때 웃는 얼굴로 안아주고 싶어. 말도 못할만큼 내가 좋아하 고 내 남자친구여서 고마워!
