Many of you may not know that the Korean War never really ended. An armistice was signed which caused hostilities to cease for negotiations to be made but the war was never resolved. Technically we are just in a long cease fire in Korea. The United States 2nd Infantry Division guards the center portion of the Korean Penninsula with South Korean forces taking up the rest of the slack.

There are hostilities from time to time along the DMZ and the situation is tense to say the least. Firefights often occur between opposing forces although we don't ever hear much about it here. They two Korean Armies skirmish from time to time and the North will occasionally pull off some type of stunt to test the readiness of he US  and South Korean forces stationed there.

I have to say that the ROK (South Korean) soldiers are the toughest that I have seen and the most loyal and dedicated. North Korean troops look vicious. I have never seen harder looking troops anywhere in the world. I don't know how tough their training is but I have no coubt that it is among the toughest that you can undergo and survive. I know that they have a reputation for being totally ruthless in combat and I don't doubt it one bit.  

The 2nd ID is probably the largest Infantry Division in the United States Army and has been stationed there every since the Korean War. Life in the Second Division is different from life anywhere else in the Army. The troop stationed there gets a taste of an actual real world situation in that the Division lives on the verge of war. The unit's patch is a large and distinctive indianhead and is available as one of our side panel designs.
