[QUOTE]After years of preparing troops for military scenarios in Europe and the Middle East, a specialized Army Reserve unit is extending its training operations to the other side of the world – the Far East.

For the first time this August, nearly 100 soldiers with the 75th Training Command participated in the annual Ulchi Freedom Guardian training exercise in the Republic of Korea. And, although this was the unit’s first UFG, it will not be the last, as it is expected to become an enduring mission.[/QUOTE]

Leon Panetta was clear that US will be changing focus to the Far East in terms of military strategy. Seems like a lot of small steps are being taken toward this goal, and I'm very curious as to what everybody thinks about this. Why are we going there, and what is there for us to accomplish? I guess China will be the next big player in the international game table, but I don't know if the next game we will play be a military one. What are your thoughts? We are also planning to send ships over there too. (a past article on this: [url]http://www.wsws.org/articles/2012/jun2012/navy-j04.shtml[/url])
