The Army Special Warfare Command is conducting a combined special strike training exercise as part of the regular South Korea-U.S. joint exercise, "Freedom Shield (FS)." This training involves the Navy Special Warfare Group (UDT/SEAL), Air Force Combat Control Team (CCT), and the U.S. Army 1st Special Forces Group, among others.


Since the 8th, the Special Warfare Command has been conducting special strike training as part of the FS exercise to enhance operational capabilities to infiltrate key enemy facilities in enemy territory during contingencies and disrupt or paralyze the enemy's command and mission execution systems. The FS exercise, which began on the 4th as a command post and field maneuver exercise for the defense of the Korean Peninsula, will continue until the 14th.


At a visit to the Special Warfare Command, Defense Minister Shin Won-sik urged, "If Kim Jong-un initiates a war, we must become the world's strongest special operations force that swiftly eliminates the enemy leadership as the core unit of the Korea Massive Punishment and Retaliation (KMPR) strategy."
