ROK soldiers train with American Soldiers as part of ‘Iron Focus’ Exercise

My name is PV2 Joseph Guerra from 2-9th Infantry. We’ve been training with the ROK Soldiers that have been attached to us for the past couple days now as part of the ‘Iron Focus’ exercise, teaching them the basics up until the big mission that’s going to be happening in the next couple days. We’ve been teaching them our tactics, movements, battle drills, as well as some first aid.

What I’ve seen during my time training with the ROK Soldiers is that they are just like us, they have a sort of brotherhood just like we do. They do the same job, have the same cohesion we have with our battle buddies, and share that with us. We’ve actually bonded together, had some laughs, and had some fun.
