Interview with Leaders

The Indianhead asked the following leaders their thoughts on the Division’ upcoming birthday

IH: What are your overall thoughts on the Division’s 98th Birthday?

CG: The Division’s 98th birthday is special as we celebrate a huge milestone in our Army. There are only a few divisions that have stood the test of time. As the song says, we were born in France on October 26, 1917 in the hell of the first World War and lived on through World War II, Korea, Iraq and Afghanistan. We recognize those who have bravely fought and worn the “patch” with honor and distinction.

IH: With the Division now a Combined Division does it make this birthday that much more special?

CG: We are still discovering the true power of the combined division. In the midst of the events of August 2015 and provocation cycle that followed by north Korea we witnessed the benefits of a combined staff.

I think we’re going to be pleasantly surprised to see how agile the Division operates in the combined environment.

IH: What are your overall thoughts on the Division’s Birthday?

DCGR: The 2nd Infantry Division has a rich and proud history. This Division was the very first U.S. Division that deployed to safeguard the freedom and democracy of Korea. On July 1, 1965, the Division returned to Korea and has been stationed here for the last 50 years. Being together for 50 years with someone makes that ‘someone’ your family. I am honored to be here and congratulate on the 98th birthday of the U.S. 2nd Infantry Division, a true family of Korea.

IH: With the Division now a Combined Division does it make this birthday that much more special?

DCGR: Before the activation of the Combined Division, the ROK-U.S. Combined Forces Command was often referred as a symbol of the ROK-U.S. Alliance. However, being the first combined division in the world’s history, this Division has become another symbol of the Alliance. I have no doubt that the Combined Division will further strengthen and develop this great Alliance.

IH: What are your overall thoughts on the Division’s 98th Birthday?

DCSM: The 26th of October is a big day for the Division especially being that it’s one of the second oldest and one of the most unique Divisions in our Army’s history.

It’s not just a patch. It’s about the people, the hundreds and thousands of Soldiers both U.S. and foreign who have served wearing this patch.

IH: With the Division now a Combined Division does it make this birthday that much more special?

DCSM: We are the only Combined Division ever in our Army’s history.

We have foreign Soldiers serving in our formations - that is something pretty unique and special to be a part of.

As I relinquish responsibility as the command sergeant major, this Division has left a significant mark in my career and my heart. I will miss it!

Army Emergency Relief gives junior Soldiers direct access STORY BY

J.D. Leipold

ARMY PUBLIC AFFAIRS Army Emergency Relief, or AER, has just made it easier for junior Soldiers to request interest-free loans and grants.

Effective Sept. 9, many junior Soldiers can apply for emergency financial assistance without involving their chain of command.

The new policy pertains to privates through corporals and specialists, who have completed Initial Entry Training and have a minimum of 12 months service or have completed Advanced Individual Training - whichever comes first. They will no longer be required to request an AER loan or grant by going through their chain of command.

Charles Durr, who serves as assistance chief for AER, said the change was brought on because AER feels that first year of service is essential in establishing trust between leader and a service members, and it’s a kind of integration period where good financial fitness is being developed.

Another reason for the policy shift is because AER has seen about a 35-percent decline over the last six years in the number of active-duty Soldiers seeking assistance, Durr said.

During calendar year 2014, AER had 35,000 requests for assistance and disbursed nearly $46 million to help active-duty Soldiers set up homes, repair autos and take care of expenditures that were unforeseen, he said.

“We attributed the decline in asking for help to what was an intimidating, time-

consuming process in that Soldiers would have to go to the squad leader, the squad leader to the platoon sergeant, the platoon sergeant to the first sergeant and so on,” Durr said. “We think our Soldiers deserve to be afforded a streamlined process for resolving any of their short-term financial issues.”

Durr said that no-interest loan requests and grants were down for fear of a perceived stigma that’s associated with asking for help and being labeled as “bad Soldiers” because they had financial issues. Some Soldiers felt their need for financial help would threaten future promotion and selection for leadership positions or that they might lose their security clearances.

Direct access to AER has been gradual. In 2013, sergeants first class were given direct access to AER without going through their chain of command. After a further worldwide assessment, Jan. 1, 2014, AER extended direct access to sergeants and above, so it’s been an incremental change over time, Durr said.

The retired command sergeant major said when Soldiers had to move through the laborious and embarrassing process of the chain of command, they would seek out alternatives like payday lenders for emergency financial assistance. Then they’d be stuck with high-interest loans.

Ways in which AER has assisted Soldiers and their Families in the past include initial deposits for utilities needed for establishing a new household, Durr said.

He added that AER can also assist with the purchase of washers, dryers, beds and other furniture instead of renting-to-own.

“We can help with auto replacement, when it’s not financially sound for a Soldier to continue to dump money into auto repairs that cost more than a vehicle is

worth,” he said.

In mid-July of this year, AER opened a new category of assistance - minor home repair for those Soldiers who choose to buy homes rather than rent. This new category is designed to cover repairs on interior, exterior wiring and the like which aren’t covered by basic home-owners’ insurance.

“We have a significant investment portfolio - so we’re postured for disasters, payless paydays, things of that nature… and this is the Soldiers’ fund, so they should be able to draw from it as needed,” Durr said. “We continue to look for ways to meet the emergency financial needs of our Soldiers and their Families, so we have to be an organization that evolves as the Army changes.”

AER was established in 1942 with $1.5 million in seed money from the American Red Cross and $12 million from Irving Berlin’s musical, “This is the Army.” It was incorporated as a non-profit organization to meet the emergency financial needs of a rapidly expanding Army.

The 2nd Infantry Division/ROK-U.S. Combined Division’s goal for this year in regards to AER is reach to 138 thousand and have 100% participation from the Soldiers of the Division.

CHAPLAIN’s CORNER BY Maj. HYOKCHAN KIM 2ID DEPUTY CHAPLAIN

Studies show that those who are grateful for many things are healthier and happier than their less grateful counterparts.

This is because gratitude is a necessary element in making our lives more abundant and fruitful. God proclaimed that the closer the world comes to its end, the less the people will be grateful.

Take a moment to think about all the blessings you’ve received over the entire course of your life. The list in your head may be growing by the second because the truth is, we have many reasons to be grateful. Why, then, is it so difficult to be grateful at times? Why do we struggle to do so on a daily basis?

An increasing reality of human nature is not knowing how to give thanks because we forget about the blessings we’ve received.

Today, we have more material things and access to greater information than those before us, yet we live with far less gratitude. Instead of being thankful for the blessings we have, we tend to focus more on the things we do not have.

Let’s think about the list of blessings in our heads, once more. Despite what our current circumstances may look like, let’s not be so quick to forget the rest of the blessings in our lives but always “give thanks in all circumstances.” (1 Thessalonians 5:18) Charles Swindoll said, “I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% how I react to it.” Likewise, there may be 10% of things going wrong in our lives, but there are 90% of things we should be thankful for--our health, our families, our lives, our freedom.

This is a practice that is easier said than done but take some time to reflect and search your heart and think about all the things to be thankful for in your life. May we allow gratitude to overwhelm our hearts to the point where it pours out into the lives of others.

s u r g e o n ’ s NO T E All about the flu vaccine It’s the beginning of fall. Time for leaves to turn colors and for you to get your flu vaccine! In the US, over 200,000 people are hospitalized and between 5,000 – 49,000 people die each year from the flu. Yet, it’s a disease that is easily prevented with the flu vaccine. Soldiers will be receiving their flu vaccine through their unit through December. Family members can receive their flu shot at the TMC. At the end of World War I the Spanish flu claimed 50 million lives worldwide. At the onset of World War II, research suggested a potential flu pandemic could strike our forces again.

Knowing that if U.S. forces were protected from the flu it would provide a combat advantage, the Surgeon General of the Army commissioned a team of physicians, including Dr. Jonas Salk, to develop the flu vaccine.

After groundbreaking research and testing, the Army developed the first mass produced flu vaccine and began vaccinating all recruits in 1945.

Today there are two major types of influenza vaccines available, the “flu shot” and the “flu nasal spray.” Both vaccinations are very effective, and all Soldiers are required to receive either the spray or shot every

BY Lt. Col. Lee Burnett 2ID Division Surgeon

year. Pregnant females, children, and older adults are at highest risk and should always receive the vaccine. The vaccine is given to those age 6 months and up, with the nasal spray being the preferred method for children 2-8. Nasal spray vaccine can be used for all Soldiers through age 49.

New strains of flu develop every year. The World Health Organization monitors 101 countries throughout the year for influenza trends, using computer models of disease spread. Every February the WHO predicts which flu viruses are most likely to cause illness during the upcoming flu season.

In the United States, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) uses WHO’s information to make their decision on which viruses will be included in the season’s flu vaccine. These predictions aren’t always perfect, which is why some years you may still get the flu despite getting the shot.

If you have more questions about the flu vaccine, please speak with your primary care provider.

COME TO L E W

SOUTH KOREA

STORY BY Sgt. NEYSA CANFIELD 2ID PUBLIC AFFAIRS The moment you step off post and visit cities throughout South Korea, you are immediately bombarded with signs you can’t read, introduced to a language you can’t understand or speak and even food that looks different. For a Soldier who’s brand new to this country this experience can be extremely overwhelming.

Headquarters and Headquarters Battalion, 2nd Infantry Division/ROK-U.S. Combined Division Unit Ministry Team welcomes new Warrior Soldiers during the Tribe Newcomers Tour, by giving them a “taste” of what Area 1 has to offer.

The tour, which begins at the Tribe Center on Camp Red Cloud, consists of a scavenger hunt throughout Area 1. New Warriors are set on a mission to find four different objectives with the help of the KATUSAs and take a group “selfie” to track what they find. With each correct objective they find they earn five points. Groups lose one point for every ten minutes over their time limit.

The Soldiers are then given a packet which includes hints for each objective, emergency contact information, an email address for the pictures to be sent and bus and subway routes.

“During the tour Soldiers not only learn how to use the transportation system in Korea. They are also building a relationship with these KATUSAs and learning about the Division and Korean history.” said Capt. Benjamin Ahn, the chaplain for HHBN, 2nd Inf. Div. Combined, and a native of Los Angles, California.

Pvt. Jewdy M. Bautista, a human resources specialist with HHBN, 2nd Inf. Div. Combined, and a native of Bronx, New York, said South Korea is his first assignment and after being part of the tour, he feels more comfortable and confidante in exploring this unfamiliar country he gets to call home for the

next year.

Unlike Bautista, not all Soldiers in the HHBN experienced the tour during their newcomer’s integration to the Battalion.

Sgt. Shenea Andrews, the operations noncommissioned officer for the Division’s chaplain office with HHBN, 2nd Inf. Div. Combined, and a native of Tampa, Florida, said most Soldiers, like herself, learned how to use the different transportation systems and the necessities to get around Korea through their peers. She believes this tour will allow Soldiers to learn how to get around earlier during their integration motivating them to explore Korea sooner rather than later.

Although the Tribe Newcomers Tour began in July for the Warriors of HHBN according to the HHBN unit ministry team with all the positive feedback from the Soldiers going through it’s going to continue to stay to help new Warrior’s feel comfortable with their new found home.

LOOKING FOR RELIEF

STORY AND PHOTO BY Cpl. LEE, SEO WON 2ND ABCT PUBLIC AFFAIRS In the past enlisted military personnel have been declared to have the most stressful job in America. Being separated from family members, enduring heavy physical demands, and traveling frequently were some of the reasons why.

In order to survive this stressful job, Soldiers start hobbies, hang out with their buddies, or explore local communities.

Staff Sgt. Anthony Allen, a brigade religious affairs noncommissioned officer with the 2nd Armored Brigade Combat Team, 1st Cavalry Division, plays a mandolin, a guitar-like instrument, daily in his room to relieve workrelated stress.

“I was always interested in instruments,” said Allen. “I played a banjo and guitar prior to the mandolin. I just wanted to give it a try and I’ve been playing it exclusively since 2010.”

A mandolin is a string instrument that produces four different notes. It has eight strings in total: each pair of the strings working together to create different notes.

Allen plays his mandolin after work for an hour or so in his room. He sometimes plays along with his friend, Sgt. Elliot Valdez, a public affairs broadcast journalist with the 2nd ABCT, who plays the guitar.

“It’s a great stress relief,” said Allen. “If I feel stressed or overwhelmed, I go pick it up and jam out for half an hour. You can forget about what was going on in your life and just focus on one thing and it helps you decompress.”

Playing musical instruments not only provided him leisure times, but it also brought him opportunities to interact with other Soldiers.

By participating in different band activities, Allen built camaraderie with his battle buddies.

“I participated in several bands before,” said Allen. “I played some sessions when I was

stationed in Maryland.”

His participation continued even when he was deployed to Afghanistan.

“I joined a band that was coming through Afghanistan in 2013,” Allen added. “It was an Air Force band and they had a mandolin player. I was sitting in my office when I heard somebody chopping on the mandolin. I recognized it and went out, met up with them and played two songs with them.”

While he is stationed in South Korea, Allen said he would like to perform a concert on the musical street in Seoul with his friends. He is also planning on practicing jazz on the mandolin during this nine month rotation.

Even though being a Soldier is tough, with a decent hobby or two, a Soldier should be able to endure their time in service and even enjoy it, said Allen.

“Find something productive that you enjoy doing and get better at it,” Allen said. “Set time aside each day to practice.”

Soldiers experience the best Seoul has to offer STORY AND PHOTOS BY Staff Sgt. JOHN HEALY 2ND ABCT PUBLIC AFFAIRS Soldiers from the 2nd Armored Brigade Combat Team, 1st Cavalry Division, were given a two-day tour of the historic districts of Seoul, South Korea, courtesy of the Dongducheon City Council, Sept. 3-4.

The purpose of the tour is to introduce Soldiers to Korean culture, said Chu Hyuk Yin, translator for the city of Dongducheon and liaison to the U.S. Army units located in the area.

“We used to have the Dongducheon tour, but there’s not as many things to show,” said Yin. “We tried to add the Seoul tour in order to let you guys understand our culture more effectively.”

Soldiers were treated to lavish meals with authentic Korean foods, a Korean musical performance, and tours of two of the many palaces and historical districts interwoven in Seoul’s infrastructure.

“I like seeing new and different stuff, so I’m having a good time with it,” said Pfc. John Getchell, an M1 Abrams crewmember with 2ABCT and one of the Soldiers who participated in the tour.

Meals were particularly educational for the Soldiers, few of whom had taken the chance to expand their palates since arriving in Korea in June.

“I didn’t know most of what I was eating, but I enjoyed all of it,” said Getchell.

The biggest hit was the tour of the Gyeongbokgun Royal Palace, first built in 1395 under the Joseon Dynasty.

“I’m interested in the architecture and geographical design that they used to build all the buildings,” said Spc. James Hackworth currently serving with 2ABCT. “It seems like they’ve got a central point and they branch out from there kind of like Arabic countries with mosques.”

This was also the first opportunity for many of the Soldiers to interact with the Korean people firsthand.

The group stayed overnight at a Korean guesthouse, a single-story villa nestled in the heart of Seoul’s Jongno District.

“I kind of figured I’d be seeing authentic traditional Korean signs and historical monuments and things of that nature,” said Hackworth. “But the guest house I didn’t really think that would be a thing. I thought it would be a hotel or something.”

Overall the Soldiers were very grateful to have such a unique and enlightening opportunity.

The tour was designed to expose Soldiers to areas they might like to revisit, said Yin. By doing so, the city of Dongducheon might inspire Soldiers to use their time to experience all that Korea has to offer.

“I want Soldiers to have a different mindset, a more adventurous mindset,” said Yin. “There’s much more for a Soldier to learn or experience. I encourage Soldiers to be courageous and mingle with the culture.”

Talon Soldier ‘throws down’ at Humphrey’s Crossfit Competition ”There will always be people who are where you wish you were, who will push you to become the best.”

Master Sgt. Bryan Vann, the noncommissioned officer in charge of the 2nd CAB communications section, prepares himself to perform a pullup during a Throw Down CrossFit competition at the Fitness Annex on Camp Humphreys, South Korea.

Master Sgt. Bryan Vann performs an overhead squat during a CrossFit competition at the Fitness Annex on Camp Humphreys, South Korea. The squat was only one of the four exercises that were part of the first workout of the day.

STORY AND PHOTOS BY Sgt. JESSE SMITH 2ND CAB PUBLIC AFFAIRS Sweat dripped down his face as he pulled his body to the top of the bar. His face showed the determination and fight he felt in his heart. He breathed in deep, pulled himself up once, dropped his feet to the ground and moved to the next exercise. The pullup was only one of the exercises included in the Throw Down Crossfit competition held at the Fitness Annex, Camp Humphreys, South Korea on Sept. 12.

Master Sgt. Bryan Vann, noncommissioned officer-in-charge of the with the 2nd Combat Aviation Brigade, 2nd Infantry Division/ROK-U.S. Combined, communications section, said he wasn’t going to compete, but the lead Humphrey’s CrossFit coach, Angela Whidden, motivated- him to do otherwise.

“She is not only one of the best Crossfit coaches out there, but also just a great person,” Vann said. “She has an awesome personality and really helps people improve.”

After participating in a two-week, peninsula-wide exercise Vann trained for two and half weeks, twice a day, and focused on his form for the different exercises.

Master Sgt. Bryan Vann performs a deadlift during a CrossFit competition at the Fitness Annex on Camp Humphreys, South Korea.

“I felt endurance was my weakness, so I did a lot of running working up to the event and was confident I had improved,” Vann said.

Vann volunteered to help run the 9/11 Hero Workout of the Day (WOD) at the Fitness Annex the day before the competition.

“The Hero Workout provides a great way for people to get together to honor the first responders who lost their lives on September 11,” said Vann.

He was ready for the competition the next day and was happy finishing in eighth out of 15 competitors added Vann.

“I think I could have done better, but I did match a personal record on the clean and jerk,” he said.

Vann will leave Korea in October and does not know when his next competition will be, but he said he will always continue with Crossfit due to the supportive community it fosters.

“You will always see people who are where you were, and you will want to help them to get better, and there will always be people who are where you wish you were who will push you to become the best,” Vann said.

Vann hopes to continue doing competitions and dreams of one day owning a CrossFit gym, so he can coach others using the knowledge he has learned over the years.

uring the summer in South Korea it is the best weather for dragonflies. As the sun gets hotter, the butterflies that flourished during the spring time fade, and dragonflies take over the grass. If you take a walk down the flight line on Camp Humphreys, you will see dozens of dragonflies, dancing around the aircraft. If you look up the sky, the chances that you will see an OH-58 Kiowa helicopter are as often as you will the dragonflies.

Spc. Devin Fullmer, a native of Soda Springs, Idaho and an OH-58 Kiowa armament specialist from the 2nd Squadron, 6th Cavalry Regiment, 2nd Combat Aviation Brigade, 2nd Infantry Division/ROK-U.S. Combined takes care of dozens of Kiowas in the 2-6 CAV hangar.

“I check the electronics, armament and safety,” said Fullmer. “I make sure that our OH-58 Kiowa is ready to fly.”

Fullmer first joined the Army in 2012 because he “wanted to fly.” Although he does not hover the sky, he does help pilots stay in flight and he is proud of his job.

“During training, I work at the Forward Arming and Refueling Point (FARP) pad,” said Fullmer. “I also keep all the parts ready in case of any accidents or mechanical faults so that the helicopter can function properly.”

Spc. Brandon Quinata, another OH-58 Kiowa armament specialist from the 2-6 CAV, spoke about how proud he was of Fullmer.

“Fullmer and I have worked together since day one,” said Quinata. “We have been through multiple gunneries, the Pohakuloa Training Area in Hawaii, the National Training Center in California and more.” Tapping Fullmer’s back, Quinata said, “All his work exceeds the standard.”

Spc. Nicholas Quinn, another OH-58 Kiowa armament specialist from the 2-6 CAV, said, “Fullmer always puts 100 percent into his work.”

When not in a field or work, Fullmer said he is a hardcore fan of dirt biking. He rides mountains with an auto bicycle. Once the unit goes back to Hawaii, Fullmer plans to go “Green to Gold”, a two-year program that provides eligible enlisted Soldiers an opportunity to complete a two-year graduate degree and earn a commission as an Army Officer.

‘Thunder’ Medics conduct annual FTX STORY AND PHOTOS BY Pfc. OH, JAE-WOO 210TH FA BDE PUBLIC AFFAIRS The Health Care Specialists of 210th Field Artillery Brigade, 2nd Infantry Division/ROK-U.S. Combined Division, conducted a combined medical field training exercise at Camps Casey and Hovey, South Korea.

The exercise was designed to train, execute and evaluate the Thunder medic’s ability to provide health service support under realistic environments with actual hands-on training.

“As they progress through the training, the Soldiers became more familiarized and more knowledgeable with the resources available to them in this theater of operations,” said, 2nd Lt. Andrew Obelgoner, a brigade medical planner with Headquarters and Headquarters Battery, 210th FA Bde, 2nd Inf. Div. Combined.

During the initial phase of the exercise Soldiers performed emergency deployment readiness drills. The units also set up their Battalion Aid Stations in order to provide a space for medics to train their close-contact health care operations with patients.

Over the course of a week medics rotated through Medical Evacuation Training, Mass Casualty Training, and Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear Training to ensure steady performance of medical care while experiencing realistic environments.

“There is a difference between Soldiers who have gone through the exercises and those who haven’t,” said Obelgoner. “Through repetitions under pressure and stress, they build confidence and become more professional.”

Being an expert on an operation ensures safety and success of the operation in

the field.

“We are dealing with heavily dangerous rotary wings here,” said Capt. Dawn Herron, a native of Clarksville, Tennessee, and an aeromedical evacuation officer from Company C, 3rd General Support Aviation Battalion, 2nd Aviation Regiment, 2nd Combat Aviation Brigade, 2nd Inf. Div. Combined. “There are safety concerns, so everyone has to have clear understanding on MEDEVAC operations.”

Soldiers learned to load patients safely onto helicopters and practiced calling nine line MEDEVAC requests.

“It is up to the medics on the ground and in the air to do everything necessary to increase the survivability of the patients. Our purpose is to keep the patient alive from point A to B,” said Herron.

Medics go through multiple practices to forge their skills to treat patients under pressure, as they cannot afford to make mistakes.

“It is up to the medics in the field to take care of all the injured Soldiers and conserve life as much as possible. This is one of the hardest tasks, because nobody can determine how many injured Soldiers there will be before the incident takes place,” said Chief Warrant Officer 2 Humphrey B. Hills, a CBRN technician from 3rd Battalion, 16th Field Artillery Regiment, 210th FA Bde., 2nd Inf. Div. Combined.

“There is no telling how many patients will come in or how serious their injuries will be. Before going into the field, we try to overcome this using Mass Casualty training,” added Obelgoner. “By putting the medics under a lot of stress with a large amount of casualties and then reinforcing the necessary measures, we ensure that we do as much good for the people.”

Soldiers of the 210th Field Artillery Brigade, 2nd Infantry Division, compete in a game of tug-of-war during an athletic competition at the Dongducheon Memorial Day Ceremony, held at the Dongducheon Sports Complex, Sep. 19.

October 2015 The city of Dongducheon hosted a Korean Memorial Day Ceremony Saturday at the Dongducheon Sports Complex to pay respects to their fallen patriots and commemorate the foreign heroes who died protecting their homeland 65 years ago.

Soldiers of the 210th Field Artillery Brigade, 2nd Infantry Division/ROKU.S. Combined Division, Republic of Korea army units and students from the Dongducheon Foreign Language High School participated in the ceremony.

“After more than 60 years, we still have a strong bond of unity between our two countries and our Soldiers,” said Command Sgt. Maj. Carlos Gonzalez, the senior noncommissioned officer of the 210th.

The ceremony began with solemn remarks commemorating all those who lost their lives during the Korean War. Special thanks and gratitude was given to the few living Korean War veterans in attendance.

The first event was a TaeKwonDo exhibition by the ROK army’s 1st Corps Honor Guard. Soldiers spun flips and kicks through the air, smashing boards and bricks to splinters and shook the crowd from their respectful silence into a roar.

The 1st Corps Honor Guard was followed by the Korean pop group Cheer Coke. U.S. Army Soldiers joined them on the field, after Cheer Coke’s second song, laughing and cheering while whipping miniature Korean and American flags through the air. The band performed one encore before exiting the stage.

“For some of them its culture shock but at the same time they can see that it doesn’t matter which country you’re in,” said Gonzalez.

The mayor of Dongducheon, Oh Sechang, announced the start of the highlight of the ceremony, the athletic exchange.

“Today’s athletic exchange will help us to strengthen national defense, capabilities, and ties between the ROK and US, thereby making the basis for peaceful unification of the Korean peninsula,” said Oh Sechang. Each group formed teams to compete in a series of contests meant to test physical abilities through

The

Spirit of

Friendship “It’s an honor because we share the same sacrifices, bravery, courage, and also friendship.”

unusual means, like arm wrestling, and a footrace through an inflatable bounce house.

Sgt. William Reynolds, the senior intelligence analyst for the 210th was surprised at the day’s turn of events. “We had to show up with camel backs and eye pro,” said Reynolds. “I thought it was going to be a detail.” The crowd cheered during the arm wrestling competition, when one of the 210th’s biggest Soldiers was defeated by an ecstatic ROK army Soldier, who was carried off

15 by his comrades like he’d just won the Olympics.

Old Korean War veterans joined in. Each team received an honorary member. Everyone present crowded around to watch the old men duke it out on stage, and the Americans won their next point thanks to an elderly Korean man in a tank top.

“They still have the energy of their youth,” said Spc. Hung Buong, a 25-year-old machinist from Oakland Ca., currently assigned to the 210th.

Buong was extremely vocal in his support, cheering on every Soldier as they stepped up on stage to face off.

“This kind of activity basically shows them that we’re here and we have your back,” said Buong. “We’ll work with you, and we can have fun with you.”

The culminating event was the tug-of-war contest. A three-inch thick, 100-meter braided rope was dragged out to the field while the groups chose 80 of their strongest to participate.

The first match was one of the ROK army units against the high schoolers, who put forth a valiant effort, but were ultimately defeated by the fully-grown Soldiers.

The next match was the American Soldiers versus the remaining ROK army unit. The Soldiers bent down to secure the rope, and the men at the middle met with nervous grins.

Command Sgt. Maj. Gonzalez, dove out of the crowd at the last possible second and took his place at the head of the line.

The whistle blew and a hush grew over the crowd. Seconds passed, and neither side gave an inch. Without warning, each side surged backwards, sending Soldiers tumbling over each other. One Soldier emerged from beneath the pile on the American side, holding one end of the severed rope overhead.

ROK and U.S. army Soldiers leapt to their feet, cheering as each group rushed towards the center of the field.

There was laughing and shouting, hugs and high-fives. Even though they were pitted against each other in competition, the Soldiers found their own way to win. Together. Just like they did 60 years ago.

JOSHUA BURDICK 23RD CHEMICAL BN Platoons from the 61st Chemical, Biological, Radioactive, Nuclear Company, 23rd Chemical Battalion, 2nd Infantry Division/ROK-U.S. Combined Division, supported the 1st Squadron, 9th Cavalry Regiment, 2nd Armored Brigade Combat Team, 1st Cavalry Division, during their Super Table XII Gunnery at Rodriguez Live Fire Complex, South Korea. The company integrated immediately with the squadron to provide CBRN expertise on operational decontamination prior to mission execution.

Fourth platoon conducted a demonstration and familiarization of operational decontamination and buddy team Mission Oriented Protective Posture (MOPP) gear exchange for the 1-9th Cav. Regt.; which resulted in all levels of leadership being trained to include the battalion commander and command sergeant major. This training offered cavalry Soldiers the opportunity to familiarize themselves with the concept of decontamination operations. “We as combat arms leaders are thankful to receive this training from the SME’s (subject matter experts) on CBRN related tasks,” said Command Sgt. Maj. Randel Bettger, senior enlisted leader for the 1-9 Cav. Regt., 2nd ABCT, 1st Cav. Div. During the Table XII Gunnery, maneuver platoons went through a simulated chemical attack while attempting to cease an objective. The contaminated platoon was then required to submit a CBRN one report. Once the platoon was contaminated they were given the grid coordinates to the site of a decontamination support element.

Upon arrival at the decontamination site the contaminated platoon established communications with the decontamination element and conducted link up procedures.

The decontamination platoon proceeded to support the contaminated unit by performing operational decontamination and supervising buddy team MOPP gear exchange.

During the duration of the 14 day exercise over 20 M1A1 Abrams and 20 M2A3 Bradley Fighting Vehicles were decontaminated as well as over 100 infantrymen conducted MOPP gear exchange. “The Table XII exercises reinforced CBRN knowledge for my platoon and at the same time allowed us to highlight its importance to Soldiers of other MOS’s,” said Spc Brendan Casper, an assistant squad leader with 61st CBRN Company, 23rd Chemical Bn., 2nd Inf. Div. Combined.

CARROL

I’m winding my way through the busy streets of Uijeongbu trying to find a place to eat. I’m not interested in authentic Korean cuisine tonight, nor do I want some greasy fast food. Tonight I am just looking for a regular kind of place for a regular kind of night. Then I look up and see a big black and white sign with three letters, TAB, short for Take A Break. The sign proudly displays this place is a hand-crafted beer house, so I decide to give it a try.

Once I get inside it almost looks like I am back in bar in the States because the atmosphere is distinctly western. Only the large window overlooking downtown Uijeongbu reminds you where you are.

I am greeted by staff member Christopher Marsh who is from Manchester, England but now calls Uijeongbu home. I ask him if he can tell me a little about the beer. Chris says, “The beer is all handcrafted beer supplied from four different companies - all in Korea.”

So, I do what any true red blooded American would do and order a beer sampler. With a sampler you can order four of any beers on tap. If you’re not sure what to get you can just ask a staff member to explain them to you or just ask them to surprise you and let the staff choose, which is what I did. The moment the first beer touches my lips my taste buds thank me and I am absolutely certain I came to right place. Chris tells me that TAB is the only place in the Uijeongbu area that offers the amount of craft beers they do. “There are other places that have one or two on tap - but not six.

I’ve not seen that anywhere else.”

Just as I am starting to settle in, I start to get a little hungry. The menu is a simple one page menu with what at first looks like the usual suspects of bar food, but don’t be deceived. The menu boast everything from handmade non-frozen hamburgers to the gigantic hash brown pizza, which Chris challenges anyone to try to eat alone. I opt for the more subtle, and order the onion rings and the baked mac and cheese. Then I watch as the staff works as team, they select an onion and chop it up, cover the rings in a homemade batter and let them slowly fry in a skillet. The mac and cheese is also handmade - and cooked with homemade ingredients - but it doesn’t look like any mac and cheese I’ve had before. They serve it to me on a board - the mac and cheese consists of four fried squares…and inside these squares is cheesy slightly spicy bundles of goodness that make you say “where has this been all my life?”

The TAB house isn’t overly busy either. It’s a place where you can have a drink and actually have a conversation. You can enjoy the high quality beer and homemade food without it being pretentious or overpriced.

Don’t worry, I didn’t see a single hipster - and the menu, as far as I could tell, is not gluten free. This isn’t a trendy bar trying to attract what is fashionable this week. It is a place, as the name suggests, where you can just take a break. They aren’t trying to be like anyone else, they just do what they think is good - and I have to tell you, it’s damn good.

CREST

The shield is yellow for Cavalry. The cross moline symbolizes the charged of this Regiment on Longstreet’s troops at Gaines Mills in 1862; a charge which saved the Union artillery and which is characterized by the Regimental historian as “its most distinguished service.” The cross moline is supposed to represent the iron pieces of a mill stone (moulin, the French word Mill). The chief is for the Puerto Rican Expedition of 1898. The original name of the island was San Juan, named for the old knights of St. John who wore a white maltese cross on a black habit. The partition line is embattled to suggest the castle on the Spanish arms. The crest is for the Indian campaigns of the Regiment; the number of arrows corresponds to the numerical designation of the organization.

Background

The distinctive unit insignia was originally approved for the 5th Cavalry on 19 January 1923. It was redesignated for the 5th Cavalry Regiment (Infantry) on 16 December 1953. The insignia was redesignated for the 5th Cavalry on 10 July 1959. It was amended to revise the symbolism on 23 June 1960.

개인이 사는 신대륙을 찾아 나섰던 것은 아 니기 때문이다. 콜럼버스는 죽을 때까지도 자신이 발견한 신대륙이 지구 어디쯤에 있는 지, 그리고 자신의 발견이 세계사에서 얼마 나 중요한 일이었는지 몰랐다. 사실 아메리카를 발견한 것은 콜럼버스 가 아니다. 우선은 그보다 앞서 살았던 원주 민들이 먼저 발견했고, 콜럼버스 이전에 일 본이나 중국의 배들이 태평양을 표류하다 아 메리카 서해안 어딘가에 닿았을 가능성도 있 다. 1010년에는 한 무리의 노르만인들이 아 이슬란드에서 오늘날의 뉴펀들랜드로 건너 와 2, 3년을 머문 적도 있다. 조금만 남쪽으 로 내려가면 따뜻하고 비옥한 땅이 한없이 펼쳐져 있음을 이들이 알았더라면 이후 역사 는 어떻게 달라졌을까? 어찌 되었든 콜럼버스가 발견한 것은 임 자 없는 빈 땅이 아니었다. 원주민들이 이미 터를 잡고 살고 있었기 때문이다. 이미 임자 가 있는 물건을 두고 이를 내가 ‘발견’했다든 지, 심지어 ‘내가 발견했으니까 내 것’이라고 우긴다면 이는 전형적인 강자의 횡포에 다름 아니다. 콜럼버스나 유럽인들이 아메리카를

발견했다는 것도 따지고 보면 같은 논리다. 이미 그곳에 터를 잡고 사는 원주인을 몰아 내고 그 땅을 빼앗은 정복자의 자기 합리화 에 불과한 것이다. 콜럼버스 기념일(Columbus Day, 원래 콜럼버스가 신대륙에 닿은 10월 12일이었지 만 지금은 10월 둘째 주 월요일로 바뀌었다) 이 있기는 하지만 떠들썩한 기념행사는 열리 지 않는다. 가장 큰 이유는 원주민을 비롯한 소수민족들의 거센 반발 때문이다. 그가 신 대륙으로 건너온 일은 유럽인들에게는 복음 이었을지 몰라도 원주민들에게는 비극의 시 작이었다.

가장 기억이 남는 여행은 군입대전 친 구와 둘이 작년 켈리포니아 코첼라 뮤직 페스티벌을 갔다온 경험입니다. 가장 인상 적이였던 무대들은 두번째날 노래를 생각 이외로 잘 불렀던 Lorde 그리고 마지막 퍼 포먼스를 한Pharrell Williams가 게스트로 Jay Z 를 불러서 놀랐고 Happy가 가장 인 기 있었을때라 관중 분위기도 좋고 매우 즐거운 시간이였습니다. 그리고 그때 가장 좋아했던Arcade Fire 공연과 Disclosure 가 피처링을 한 Sam Smith가 와서 Latch 를 불러서 즐거웠던 기억이 납니다. 빨리 전역해서 내년에 또가고싶습니다!

가장 기억에 남는 여행은 군 입대하기 전 대학 동기들과 함께 떠났던 홍콩여행 입니다. 2월에 떠났던 여행이었는데 그 당 시 한국은 너무 추워서 더운 날씨가 그리 워 떠났던 여행이었습니다. 그런데 날씨도 흐릿흐릿하고 생각했던 것보다 쌀쌀해서 아쉬웠습니다. 제가 중국 음식을 좋아해서 홍콩의 유명한 맛집들을 찾아다녔었는데 정말 최고였습니다. 마지막 날에는 야시 장에 가서 타로점도 보고 시장 구경을 했 습니다. 타로점 아주머니께서 한달 안에 여자친구가 생긴다고 하셔서 잔뜩 기대했 지만 다음 달에 군대에 입대했답니다.

저는 입대 두달 전에 혼자 떠난 유럽 여 행이 제일 기억에 남습니다. 대학교에 들 어와 과외를 하며 번 돈으로 스스로 여행 자금을 마련해서 갔다는 것과 처음 혼자서 떠나는 여행이라는 것이 여행 시작 전부터 저를 설레게 했었습니다. 독일로 출발하여 영국, 스페인, 프랑스, 체코를 돌아봤던 35 일 간의 홀로 유럽 여행은 물론 순탄치만 은 않았습니다. 하지만 점차 시간이 지나 면서, 혼자 다니는 것에 익숙해지니 동행 도 구하고 맛집도 찾아다니면서 여유롭게 여행하게 될 수 있었습니다. 이토록 35일 간 의 유럽 여행은 값진 경험이었습니다.

저에게 있어서 가장 인상 깊었던 여행 은 대학교 1학년 봄방학때 친구들과 함께 했던 캔쿤 여행입니다. 대학교 입학후 학 교 적응및 많은 과제들과 시험들로부터 싸인 스트레쓰를 홀가분하게 해결할수 있 는 시간이였습니다. 추운 겨울을 미국에서 보낸 후 따뜻한 봄을 캔쿤에서 맞이하며, 친구들과는 아름다운 경치와 맛있는 음식 들을 먹을 수 있었습니다. 비록 8개월 전 여행이였으나 아직 모든 기억들이 생생하 며 친구들과 우정을 쌓아나갈 수 있었던 행복한 여행이였습니다.

2여단 장병들이 서울에 방문하다

제 1기병사단 제 2기갑전투여단 소속 19명의 장병이 9월 3일부터 이틀간 진행되는 동두천 시청에서 마련한 서울 역사 문화 체험 여행에 참가했다. 지역 미군 부대 연락담당 업무를 수행하는 동두천시 통역담당 임주 혁씨는 장병들에게 새로운 한국 문화를 소개하기 위한 새로운 일환으로 서 여행을 계획했다고 말했다. 임주혁씨는 “이전에는 동두천시 여행이 있었지만 볼거리가 많지 않 았다,”며 “우리나라 문화를 더욱 효과적으로 전달하기 위해 서울 여행을 기획하게 되었다”고 말했다. 장병들은 푸짐한 한국 음식과 한국 음악공연 그리고 두 군데의 유명 한 관광지역과 역사 지구를 방문하는 등 서울의 문화 시설 속에 녹아들 수 있었다. 행사에 참여한 대다수 장병은 어떤 종류의 관광을 하게 될지 전혀 무 지한 상태였다고 한다.

2여단 제1-9기갑대대소속 M1 에이브람스 승무원인 겟첼 일병은 “ 나는 새롭고 특별한 것들을 보는 것을 좋아하기 때문에 좋은 시간을 보 내고 있다”고 말했다.

6월에 대한민국에 도착한 이후 한국 음식을 접할 기회가 많이 없었던 장병들에게 이번에 제공된 음식들은 색다른 유희로 다가왔다. 겟첼 일병은 “내가 어떤 음식을 먹고 있는지 잘 몰랐지만, 상당히 맛 있었다”고 말했다. 장병들은 여행에서 각자 자신에게 맞는 즐길 거리를 찾을 수 있었다. 그중 여행의 하이라이트는 1395년 조선 시대에 지어진 경복궁 방문이 었다. 겟첼 일병은 “아시아 궁전을 본 것은 처음이다”며 “버킹엄 궁전을 본 적은 있지만, 공통점을 찾아볼 수 없다” 고 말했다.

1-9기갑대대에서 근무 중인 오클라호마 출신 제임스 핵워스 상병 (Spc. James Hackworth)은 “건물들의 지리 설계와 건축 설계에 흥미 가 갔다,”며 “모스크와 같은 아랍 문화권에서와 비슷하게 중심 건물에서 뻗어 나가는 설계인 것 같다”고 말했다. 이번 여행은 또한 많은 장병이 처음으로 한국인들과 접촉하는 기회 를 제공했다. 핵워스 상병은 “개체공간은 그다지 중요한 것 같지 않은 것 같다,”며 “차이점은 분명 존재하지만 그렇게 크지는 않다”고 말했다. 장병들은 서울의 심장부인 종로에 위치한 단층 빌라 형식의 한옥에 서 하룻밤을 머물렀다. 한옥 전체에서 흐르는 조선 시대의 풍수를 느끼 며 장병들은 양반다리를 한 체 녹차를 마셨다. 헥워스 상병은 “이번 여행에서 한국의 전통적인 물품들과 기념물들 을 볼 줄은 어느 정도 예상했었다,”며 “그러나 한옥은 전혀 예상하지 못 했다. 보통 호텔과 같은 곳에 머물 줄 알았다”고 말했다. 전체적으로 장병들은 진귀하고 신기한 기회를 얻게 된 것에 매우 감 사했다. 핵워스 상병은 “이런 것들을 기획해줘서 감사하다”며 “좋은 경험이 되었다”고 말했다. 여행의 많은 부분이 장병들이 다시 방문하기를 원할만한 장소들로 기획되었다고 한다. 동두천 시 장병들이 부대 주위에서 맴돌기보다는 그 들의 자유시간동안 더 다양한 한국을 경험할 수 있도록 행사를 기획했 다고 한다. <기사 및 사진 _ 하사 존 힐리 / 제1기병(기갑)사단 제2여단 공보처 번역 _ 병장 이서원 / 제1기병(기갑)사단 제2여단 공보처>

사단소식

속도가 필요할 때

캘리포니아 주, 패터슨 출신 21살 솔로몬 위 버 상병(Spc. Solomon Weaver)은 얌전하게 생긴 청년으로 현재 제1기병사단 제2기갑전투여단 제 1-8기갑대대 예하 델타 중대(Delta Company)의 전차병이다. 그는 그렇게 키가 크지도, 덩치가 있는 편도 아 니다. 전직 미 육군에 근무한 군인이었던 그의 아 버지는 고향에서 총기류를 제작한다. 위버는 예 의 바르고, 그의 복장은 깔끔하다. 위버는 대화를 할 때, 상대방의 눈을 망설임 없이 마주 보는 경 향이 있다. 위버는 또한 그의 대대에서, 아마 여단 전체에 서도, 가장 빠른 병사일 것이다. 그는 3.2km를 10 분 47초에 주파할 수 있다. 위버는 “3.2km 달리기에서는 아마 자신이 제 일 빠를 것이다”며 “단체 달리기를 할 때 항상 제 외된다”고 말했다. 그렇기에 위버의 중대원들은 그의 빠른 달리 기 속도에 대해 늘 농담을 하고는 한다. 한 병사는 “항상 얻어맞고 다니다 보니 빨라진 것이다”며 놀리고는 한다며, 이에 위버는 그저 미 소로 답했다.

2년 동안 1-8기갑대대 델타 중대가 숨겨왔던 이런 위버의 놀라운 속도는 슬링 로드를 이용하여 헬리콥터에 장비를 싣고 나르는 고강도 공중강습 교육에서 알려졌다. 지난 9개월 동안 일상적인 일만 해왔던 위버는 “힘든 훈련에 도전해보고 싶었다”며 “밖으로 나 가, 자기 자신에게 나 자신을 육체적으로나 정신 적으로나 증명하고 싶었다”고 이번 공중강습 훈 련에 참가하게 된 동기를 밝혔다. 위버는 여러 정보를 외우고 다른 종류의 슬링 로드를 연습해보는 처음 2주간의 수업 동안 다 른 교육생들과 별다를 바 없는 평범한 모습을 보 였다. 위버의 중대 전차 사수이자 이미 공중 강습 훈 련을 수료한 적이 있는 조셉 케브리알레스 병장 (Sgt. Joseph Cabriales)이 그런 위버 곁에서 지속

적으로 그에게 힘이 되 어 주었다. 케브리알레스는 “ 수업 내내 위버에게 ‘ 손쉽게 수료하자. 보병 들을 모두 제치고 으뜸 으로 수료하여 맘껏 뽐 내보자’고 말하며 그 를 귀찮게 굴었다”고 말했다. 위버는 케브리알레 스가 델타 중대에 근무 하게 되었을 때 처음 만났던 장병 중 한 명 이라고 한다. 케브리알레스는 “위버는 상당히 흥미로운 장 병이다”며 “그가 생각지도 못한 시련에 자신을 몰 아붙이는 모습이 보기 좋았다”고 말했다. 이런 종류의 교육을 받아본 적이 없었던 위버 였지만, 얼마 안 가 교육 과정을 마치기 위해 무엇 을 해야 하는지 재빨리 깨달았다. 위버는 “소방 호스를 통해 물을 마시는 것과 같았다,”며 “짧은 시간 안에 너무나도 많은 것들 을 배웠다”고 말했다. 교육을 반쯤 진행하였을 때 위버는 감기에 걸 리고 말았다. 교육을 계속해서 진행할 수 있는지 를 결정하는 9.6km 행군을 앞두고 일어난 사태 였다. 위버는 “정말 타이밍이 안 좋았다,”며 “정말 힘들었다”고 그때의 심정을 토로했다. 위버는 좋은 전차병이라면 늘 그러듯 고통을 참고 자신을 몰아붙였다. 그는 슬링로드, 라펠, 그 리고 서든데스 형식의 필기시험을 모두 통과했다. 마지막으로 남은 것은 19.2km 행군뿐, 주로 2주 일 간의 육체적 훈련을 받아온 장병들의 근성을 시험하는 공중 강습 교육의 절정으로 알려져 있 는 시험이었다. 행군은 찌는 듯한 열기가 반기는 새벽 2시 45 분에 시작되었다. 위버는 그 당시 의 상황에 대해 “ACU (Army Combat Uniform)을 입고 시작했 다”며 “팔을 한 번 걷고 바지는 세 단 접었었다. 아침에 습도가 너무 높 아, 블라우스를 벗도록 허락해주었다”고 설명 했다. 그는 또한 “결국 기초 장구류와 군복 티 셔츠, 바지 그리고 군장 이 우리의 마지막 복 장이었다”고 말했다.

그의 처음 시작은 여유로웠다. 위버는 “시작하 고 얼마 안 가, 몇몇의 사람들이 자신을 지나쳐 갔 다,”며 “나도 저 정도는 할 수 있지 않을까 생각했 다”고 말했다. 위버는 점점 속도를 높여 갔으며, 다른 병사들 을 제치기 시작했다. 위버는 “선두에는 레인저 교 육을 수료한 대위가 한 명 있었다”며 “그를 내 목 표로 삼았고 7.2km 지점쯤에서 따라잡을 수 있었 다”고 상황을 설명했다. 위버는 또한 “그를 따라잡자마자, 그가 들고 있던 깃발을 건네받고 내 무기를 주었다,”며 “그 후 남은 시간 동안 선두로써 남아있기 위해 노력 했다”라고 말했다. 행군이 진행돼가는 도중, 위버는 다른 장병이 어느 정도 자신을 따라잡아 깃발을 빼앗으려 하 는 것을 느꼈다고 한다. 선두를 빼앗기지 않기 위 해 그는 계속해서 보폭을 늘려나가는 수밖에 없 었다. 나중에 알고 보니 그 장병은 공중 강습 강 사였으며, 행렬을 지휘하는 임무를 지니고 있었 다고 한다. 위버는 “나 자신이 견딜 수 있는 한계치까지 기운을 짜내었던 것 같다”고 말했다. 위버의 최종 기록은 2시간 2분이었다. 그날 오 후, 그는 공로를 인정받아 공중 강습 수료식에서 상을 수여받았다.

1-8기갑대대 델타 중대 지휘관인 로버트 마티 스 대위(Capt. Robert Mathis)는 교육을 성공적으 로 수료하고 가장 빠른 행군 시간을 기록한 자신 의 병사를 치하하기 위해 수료식에 참가했다. 마티스는 “장병들을 위해 무언가를 해줄 수 있 는 기회가 있다면 무조건한다,”며 “공중 강습 배 지를 착용할 수 있다는 것은 정말 훌륭한 것이다” 고 말했다. 위버에 관해서 마티스는 “그는 데스퍼라도(델 타 중대)에 걸맞은 인물이며 중대에 있을 자격이 있다”고 말했다. <기사 _ 하사 존 힐리 / 제1기병(기갑)사단 제2여단 공보처 사진 및 번역 _ 상병 이서원 / 제1기병(기갑)사단 제2여단 공보처

모든 일정을 소화하고 크로스핏 대회에 참여하다 두 팔로 철봉에 매달린 그의 얼굴에서 땀이 흘렀다. 그는 중력을 거 슬러 다시 봉 위로 몸을 들어 오르면서 숨을 깊게 내쉬었다. 그는 철봉 에서 내려와 다음 운동을 하러 갔다. 이건 캠프 험프리 크로스핏 대회 (Camp Humphreys Throw Down Crossfit competition)의 일부에 불 과하다. 제2전투항공여단 정보통신과 부사관으로 군 복무 중인 브라이언 벤 상사 (Master Sgt. Bryan Vann)는 지난 9월 12일 피트니스 에넥스 (Fitness Annex)에서 열린 크로스핏 대회에 참가했다. 벤 상사는 혹독한 훈련과 바쁜 일정 때문에 대회 참가를 포기하기로 했지만, 험프리 크로스핏 코치, 안젤라 위든(Angela Whidden)이 그를 격려하여 참가하게 됐다고 말했다. 벤 상사는 “그녀는 최고의 크로스핏 코치일 뿐만 아니라 주변 사람들 에게 힘을 주는 아주 긍정적인 에너지가 있는 사람이다.” 고 말했다. 비록 대회까지 2주 반밖에 시간이 남지 않았지만 그는 하루에 두번씩 훈련하면서 대회를 누구보다 열심히 준비했다. 대회 전날 벤 상사는 9/11 영웅들을 기리는 달리기 대회를 위해 봉 사활동을 하기도 했다. 벤 상사는 “나는 인내력이 나의 가장 큰 약점이 라고 생각해 그것을 극복하기 위해 달리기를 많이 했으며 자신감이 생겼 다” 고 말했다. 벤 상사는 15명 참가자 중에 8등을 했고 그는 결과에 아주 만족스럽 다고 했다. 벤 상사는 다가오는 10월에 한국을 떠난다. 아직 어느 부대로 배치 받을지 모르지만, 어디를 가든 그는 계속 크로스핏을 하고 다양한 봉사 활동에 참가할 것이라고 했다. 벤 상사는 계속해서 다양한 대회에 참가하고 나중에는 그가 그간 쌓 아온 경험과 기술들을 주변 사람들에게 널리 알릴 수 있는 크로스핏 체 육관을 운영하고 싶다고 자신의 포부를 밝혔다. <기사 및 사진 _ 병장 제스 스미스 / 제2전투항공여단 공보처 번역 _ 상병 김정일 / 제2전투항공여단 공보처>

210 포병여단 의무병, 야전 훈련에 임하다 제2보병사단(연합) 제210포병여단의 의료 서비스 전문가들은 8 월 23일부터 28일까지 캠프 케이시(Camp Casey)와 캠프 호비(Camp Hovey)에서 통합의무야전훈련을 실시하였다. 이 훈련은 의무병들을 교육해 실제 상황에서 의료 서비스를 지원하 도록 하고 그들의 임무 수행 능력을 평가하기 위하여 기획되었다. 의무 병들은 이 훈련을 통해 실제 상황을 체험하였고 한반도에서 그들에게 주 어진 의료 서비스 자산들을 활용한 능력 계발을 하였다. 210포병여단 본부 포대 소속의 여단 의료 기획 담당자인 앤드류 오벨거너 소위(2nd Lt. Andrew Obelgoner)는 “훈련을 진행하면서 장병들은 정해진 환경 과 자산들에 점점 익숙해지고 이해를 하게 되었습니다”고 말했다. 훈련의 첫 단계에서 의무병들은 모든 부대가 배치를 시작하는 장소 에서 긴급 배치 준비태세훈련을 시행하였다. 또한, 각 부대는 의무병들 이 환자들과 밀접한 의무 지원 작전을 시행하도록 대대 단위의 의무소 를 설치하였다. 오벨거너는 “병사들은 의무반에서 벗어난 한 주동안 24시간 단위의 작전들을 수행하고 있습니다”며 “그들은 그곳에서 여느 배치 환경과 마 찬가지로 환자들을 진료하고 있습니다”고 말했다. 여단의 의무병들은 실제 상황에서의 안정적인 임무 수행 능력 계발을 위해 며칠간 의무후송 훈련, 대량 사상자 훈련, 그리고 화생방 훈련을 번갈아 가며 시행하였다. 오벨거너는 “야전 훈련에 참가한 병사들과 그러지 않은 병사들 간에 차이가 있습니다. 압박과 스트레스가 많은 환경에서 그들은 반복된 훈련 을 통해 자신감을 키우고 점점 전문가가 되어갑니다”고 말했다. 작전의 전문가가 된다는 것은 야전에서 작전 시에 안정과 성공을 보 장하는 것이다. 예를 들어, 의무후송 작전은 올바르게 시행되지 않으면 매우 위험한 임무가 될 수 있다.클락스빌, 테네시(Clarksville, Tennessee)출신의 2사단(연합) 제2전투항공여단 제3-2 C 중대 소속의 항 공 의무 후송 교관인 단 헤론 대위(Capt. Dawn Herron)는 “우리는 현 재 굉장히 위험한 회전익들을 다루고 있습니다”며 “안전에 유의해야 할

점이 있으니 모두가 의무후송 작전에 대한 명확한 이해가 있어야 합니 다”고 말했다. 병사들은 구급항공 자산들의 능력에 대해 상세하게 배웠 을 뿐만 아니라, 헬리콥터에 환자들을 싣는 법도 배웠다. 병사들이 훈련 에 대한 자신감을 얻자 그들은 ‘9줄 의무후송 요청’과 회전익에 환자를 싣는 것을 반복하였다.
