Beginning of the DMZ tour

I went to the Demilitarized Zone yesterday on a tour. It was amazing how we went through fenced areas with barb wire and places with mines everywhere. It's funny that they say it's demilitarized, when it seems like that's the place where so much of the military is securing. Most of the guards are now South Korean ROK soldiers, but the American military is still working with them. We had a presentation by an American soldier at the JSA Ballinger Building. We learned some about the history of the conflict and how they were securing the area. I wish I was better at remembering the details, because I already forget a lot of what he said...
