'저는 그들의 땅을 지키기 위하여 싸웠던 인디안들의 이야기를 기억합니다. 백인들이 그들의 신성한 숲에 도로를 만들기 위하여 나무들을 잘랐습니다. 매일밤 인디안들이 나가서 백인들이 만든 그 길을 해체하면 그 다음 날 백인들이 와서 도로를 다시 짓곤 했습니다. 한동안 그 것이 반복되었습니다. 그러던 어느날, 숲에서 가장 큰 나무가 백인들이 일할 동안 그들 머리 위로 떨어져 말과 마차들을 파괴하고 그들 중 몇몇을 죽였습니다. 그러자 백인들은 떠났고 결코 다시 오지 않았습니다….' (브루스 개그논)

USFK Offers Child-Friendly Protective Masks

The 2ND Infantry Division of the U.S. Forces Korea has distributed new child-friendly chemical environment protective masks to its servicemembers with children, according to the Stars and Stripes said Monday.

The U.S. military newspaper said the move is part of efforts to better protect American children in South Korea from possible chemical and biological attacks by North Korea.

``It's just a [matter of] preparation,'' Army Capt. Allan Garcia, the 2nd Infantry Division's chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear operations officer, was quoted as saying. ``You just never know what the capability … is of [North Korea].''

Garcia said the model being replaced was good only for children 3 and younger, and was ``more like a plastic bag that you put your kids in.'' The new model, however, is good for children 8 and younger and ``looks more like a space suit,'' he said.
