    WOLFHOUN-O REFLECTIONS V We're moving right along with our tales of the people and events which have made, and continue to make, the Wolfhounds such a unique organization. Just back from Sinai after a six month "holiday" with the Second Battalion is SSG Rob Stewart .. a big help in the past and sure to be one again. He has already breathed life into what appeared on the surface to be a boring, humdrum tour. We're proud of the Battalion's record there! We're also grateful to SOT Ralph Strickland, First Battalion's chaplain's assistant, for his help. We've been hearing from a few more Wolfhounds ... and have already used some of their stories. The history of the regiment is downright fascinating, especially when you get down to the individual level. And speaking of individuals, say a prayer for that great Wolfhound Colonel Lewis Millett ... he's a bit under the weather. If you have any reflections you'd like to share with other Wolfhounds, send 'em along. We'll try to publish them.

Ambassador Stephens not only deserves the Building Bridges Award, she epitomizes it. If we didn't have the award, we might have to create something just like it so we could give it to her. Consider the wording under which the award was created in 2000. It was "to honor those who have enhanced relations between Americans and Asians and who exemplify the Pacific Century Institute's commitment to building bridges to a better future." Building Bridges of understanding to a better future is exactly what Ambassador Stephens has done her entire life, both before and after becoming a career diplomat. Currently, as Ambassador to Korea, Kathleen Stephens enjoys a great personal popularity in that country...and for good learned the qualities I needed to be a diplomat. I had warm- reason.

  • Monthy Recap: May
    MONTHY RECAP: MAY DPRK NUCLEAR NEGOTIATIONS May opened with optimistic statements from U.S. envoy to six-party talks Christopher Hill and his newly appointed counterpart from South Korea, Kim Sook, after meeting in Washington,. Hill stated that after the DPRK completes its requirements, “[the United States] will certainly complete ours.” A Washington spokesperson also reaffirmed at the beginning of May U.S. commitment to remove North Korea from its list of terrorism-sponsoring states, although at the end of the month, this had not yet occurred. In addition, South Korean Foreign Minister Yu Myung-hwan announced that the United States and North Korea were expected to set up government offices in their counterpart’s capital, however, there was no timeline mentioned or any confirmation on the status of such a plan by either U.S. or DPRK officials. On May 1, it was also reported that the U.S. House Foreign Affairs Committee had passed legislation that waives the Glenn Amendment, which restricts the Department of Energy’s funding regarding countries that have conducted a nuclear test. This will allow the energy department to “provide material, direct, and necessary assistance” to North Korea’s denuclearization activities. On the same day, the committee also passed a bill that would restrict the government’s ability to remove the North from the list of terrorist-sponsoring states, requiring, if approved by Congress, the Bush administration to “certify that the DPRK has provided a complete and correct declaration” of all its nuclear programs first. North Korea has announced that it would be willing to blow up the cooling tower at the Yongbyon nuclear facility within a day after Washington removes it from the terrorist-sponsor state list.

  • The US in South Korea
    THE U.S. IN SOUTH KOREA: ALLY OR EMPIRE? PERSPECTIVES IN GEOPOLITICS GRADE: 9-12 AUTHOR: Sharlyn Scott TOPIC/THEME: Social Studies TIME REQUIRED: Four to five 55-minute class periods BACKGROUND: This lesson examines different perspectives on the relationship between the U.S. and the Republic of Korea (R.O.K. – South Korea) historically and today. Is the United States military presence a benevolent force protecting both South Korean and American interests in East Asia? Or is the U.S. a domineering empire using the hard power of its military in South Korea solely to achieve its own geopolitical goals in the region and the world? Are there issues between the ROK and the U.S. that can be resolved for mutually beneficial results? An overview of the history of U.S. involvement in Korea since the end of World War II will be studied for context in examining these questions. In addition, current academic and newspaper articles as well as op-ed pieces by controversial yet reliable sources will offer insight into both American and South Korean perspectives. These perspectives will be analyzed as students grapple with important geopolitical questions involving the relationship between the U.S. and the R.O.K.
