CAMP CASEY, South Korea - Cavalry Soldiers are teaching English classes at a local middle school in the nearby town of Dongducheon, South Korea, to assist the school in language instruction and to learn a little about Korean culture.
“This not only allows us to support the citizens in Dongducheon,” said Cpl. Youngjin Ko, Republic of Korea Army Augmentee to the U.S. Army. “It allows us to share our culture – Korean culture.”
Soldiers and KATUSAS from the 2nd Battalion, 12th Cavalry Regiment, 1st Armored Brigade Combat Team, 1st Cavalry Division, taught classes for more than 80 seventh-grade students at Saengyeon Middle School in Dongducheon.
“They are really excited about us being here,” said 1st Lt. Gary Davis, Chaplain, 2nd Bn., 12th Cav. Reg. “We see their faces light up when we walk down the halls.”
Teachers and administrators at the school appreciated the Soldiers’ efforts.
“I thank the Soldiers for teaching students and showing their kindness,” said Bae Mi Hwa, English teacher, Saengyeon Middle School. “Most importantly, this gave some confidence to the students, and they really liked the teachers.”
