U.S. Troops Learn Korean History

About 100 U.S. soldiers, including Burwell B. Bell, commander of U.S. Forces Korea, listen to an English lecture on Korean history, by Ryu Young-ik, a chair professor at Yonsei University, on January 10, 2008. Participating soldiers showed a keen interest and jotted down the content of the lecture which was given at the ROK-US Combined Forces Command with an aim to introduce Korean history and culture to soldiers recently transferred to Korea.
