Not Again
Looks like the PATRIOT guys in Suwon are in trouble again. I don’t know much about Suwon Airbase but it sure knows how to air it’s dirty laundry:
The Army in South Korea is investigating an allegation that a male soldier carried out or attempted a sexual assault on a female soldier in a barracks at Suwon Air Base last week, Stars and Stripes has learned.
The alleged incident occurred within the 1st Battalion, 43rd Air Defense Artillery, part of the 35th Air Defense Artillery Brigade, a Patriot missile unit.
According to a unit member, who spoke on condition of anonymity, an incident occurred last week and led to the woman accusing the soldier of sexual misconduct toward her.
The issue of sexual assault is not just a Suwon Airbase thing but a problem throughout the Army and USFK as well. Just for whatever reason the PATRIOT guys seem to be taking the brunt of the publicity surrounding sexual assaults in USFK. I guess we will see how this turns out. I know one thing, if this guy is guilty no one will tear his rank off in court this time.
