The nominee to become the top U.S. commander in Korea said the evacuation of civilians from the Korean Peninsula presents “a wicked problem,” but he is confident twice-a-year drills have prepared the U.S. military for the problem it faces.
He also stressed that the risk to civilians isn’t limited to the families of U.S. troops but threatens a wide population.
Gen. Robert B. Abrams, the U.S. Army Forces Command commander who has been nominated for the top post in South Korea, said he wasn’t ready to suggest a return to unaccompanied tours for soldiers to reduce the number of dependents. Such a big decision would be made after “an on-the-ground assessment,” Abrams told the Senate Armed Services Committee at a Sept. 25 hearing.

South Korea’s Ministry of National Defense on Monday pushed back against remarks by a former commander of U.S. Forces Korea who said wartime plans against North Korea must account for China’s militaristic influence in the region.

Command until July, said on Voice of America on Saturday

As fighting has raged in Ukraine during the last year, Russia has steadfastly maintained that it has nothing to do with the well-armed, well-organized separatists fomenting violence in the country’s east that has claimed the lives of more than 6,100. This weekend, that facade crumbled a little further when two Russian special forces soldiers were captured following a battle near Luhansk.
In a press briefing on Monday, Chief of General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Viktor Muzhenko said that Kiev now has concrete proof of direct Russian involvement in Ukraine and that they will be inviting OSCE observers to speak with the Russian soldiers. The two men were captured after participating in a reconnaissance mission near a power plant. One Ukrainian soldier was killed in the fighting that led to their capture.
A video released online claims to show one of the two captured Russian soldiers admitting to the spying mission from a hospital bed. The soldier identified as Alexander Alexandrov and said that he is a sergeant from the central Russian city of Togliatti in the “Spetsnaz” special forces controlled by Russia’s military intelligence service, the GRU.

Bowe Bergdahl’s case to a felony-level, general court-martial will be required to testify Wednesday about accusations that he destroyed letters related to the case, a military judge has ruled.
Bergdahl’s lawyers have asked Col. Jeffery R. Nance to remove Gen. Robert Abrams, the chief of Army Forces Command, from his role as convening authority after he admitted he sent some 100 letters that he received from the public about the case to be burned.
Nance’s decision came Monday during a pre-trial hearing in which he also determined Berghdahl’s attempt to join the French Foreign Legion and his time on a weapons range prior to enlisting cannot be used in his court-martial as evidence of his pursuits of adventure.
