#4 "Yongsan Garrison is in the heart of the South Korean capital. It occupies more than 600 acres (240 hectares) and has many facilities associated with a small city." To include a world class 18 hole golf course. Fore!

"Much of it has grown to the north such that a lot of these areas â these remote camps, bases that abut the DMZ â are now surrounded by residential areas." To include at least a dozen 'recreational' bars just outside each of their front gates. 12 million served! Short time or overnight. Doc, watch where you put that needle in. Hell, son you took your pants down to get it, you might was well take them down to get rid of it. Ouch!

#5 I sometimes wonder if we don't organize these demonstrations ourselves just so we can get the SKOR's to beg us to leave. The military budgets are being slashed with battle axes and I'm sure the Pentagon planners are are all greedily looking at those troops thinking, hey, I could use a few of those guys for my shrinking little empire.

Those poor troops are sitting there with trouble in front and trouble behind and now that NKOR has nuclear weapons..it just has to be in our interests to get out of there as gracefully as possible.
