President Moon Addresses Military on ROK Armed Forces Day
|Here is what President Moon had to say in commemoration of the 71st anniversary of the ROK Military:
President Moon Jae-in on Tuesday pledged to build an unassailable military force capable of supporting peace building on the peninsula in remarks at a ceremony to commemorate Korea’s 71st Armed Forces Day.
The ceremony took place for the first time at an Air Force base in Daegu, home to the Air Force’s main combat force of F-15K jets, and featured an unveiling of the country’s new F-35A stealth fighter jets recently acquired from the United States.
In an address, Moon commended the military for defending the freedoms of every South Korean to enjoy peace and prosperity and said it was this defensive might that would buttress the country’s efforts to build a permanent peace regime on the peninsula.
“Peace should not be something to maintain but to create,” Moon said, according to a Blue House translation. “The impenetrable security of our armed forces underpins dialogue and cooperation, enabling us to embark on a bold journey toward permanent peace.”

Fatty must be drooling at all the tech he’s going to inherit.
What a dork. Everything he says seems to come out of both sides of his mouth at once. We saw two helicopters land at the Blue House later in the afternoon, so I guess he was coming home for supper.
