USFK Soldier Killed in Traffic Accident Near Camp Humphreys
|Condolences to the friends and family of the USFK soldier killed in a recent traffic accident in South Korea:
A U.S. soldier was killed when a truck slammed into a military ambulance and a car that had pulled over to the side of a highway after an earlier collision south of Seoul, officials said Friday.
The Eighth Army confirmed that a 35th Air Defense Artillery Brigade soldier died of injuries suffered in a vehicle accident. The soldier was not further identified pending family notification.
“Medical aid was provided on the scene until the soldier was transported via ambulance to the Good Morning Hospital,” the 8th Army said in a statement. “The incident is under investigation.” (…..)
The deadly chain of events began when a car rear-ended the U.S. military vehicle on an interchange, prompting the soldier to get out to examine the damage. An 8-ton cargo truck then slammed into them, according to the regional fire service. [Stars & Stripes]
You can read more at the link, but imagine what the response would have been if it was a US soldier that killed a Korean civilian in a traffic accident? The usual suspects would be protesting and demanding apologies from the US President.
Time to protest, fire bomb the blue house, and kidnap Koreans off the subways to drag to our protests. This is the Korean way to act after a traffic accident!
The problem is our lack of 4500 years of culture. We just don’t see the Big Picture the way the Korean protestors do.
If we want our protests to have traction, they have to be in front of the Japanese Embassy. And in addition to the traffic stuff, we need signs indicating Dokdo is Korean.
