Sgt. Yoon Jang-ho, the Korean soldier killed in Afghanistan yesterday, actually returned to Korea in May 2005 to fulfill his mandatory military duty (in Korean) after spending 11 years in the United States. He volunteered for service in Afghanistan in June of that year.

    what, no comments?

    If he was Sgt then that means he was nearling the end of his term, he would have only had Four months or so left. What a waste.

    God tends to take the goods ones early…
