KubrickIsMyCopilot: Gonna need more information here. What was the South Korean role in Vietnam?
UnoKitty: [South Korean troops feared by Vietcong and North Vietnamese regulars alike](http://warfarehistorynetwork.com/daily/military-history/south-korean-soldiers-in-the-vietnam-war/)
>On the night of February 13-14, 1967, the 11th Company of the 2nd South Korean Marine Brigade was occupying a position near the village of Trah Bin Dong in Quang Ngai province, South Vietnam…
>The communists regularly harassed the South Koreans but did not attack them directly until that night. Two Vietcong regiments, the 1st and 21st, came out of the hills under cover of heavy mortar fire and hit the base from all directions. The South Koreans delivered devastating return fire from their bunkers with machine guns and mortar rounds dropped at point-blank range. As the communists closed, the outnumbered South Koreans fought hand to hand, refusing to surrender their positions. Some marines dismantled their heavy machine guns rather than let them fall into enemy hands. One wounded man refused to be taken alive and pulled the pins on a pair of grenades as the communists entered his bunker.
>Led by their commanding officer, Captain Chung Kyong Gin, the South Korean marines eventually pulled back and allowed several hundred Vietcong to break into the camp. Chung sent two squads to plug the gap. He then ordered the rest of the marines to fix bayonets and close with the now trapped enemy, killing more than 100 inside the camp. By 0730 hours, the marines had cleared their base and chased the communists back into the jungle…
>In all, 254 communists were killed in the assault compared to 15 South Koreans deaths.
*Knew several Americans that had worked with ROK troops. Each of them professed great respect for the ROKs. As well as a willingness to work with them again.*
