So long dinner on a River Cruise boat

Sweden has, as you by now all probably know, been sending officers to South Korea to serve the NNSC to supervise the Armistice Agreement signed in 1953.  But did you know that since many decades back many spouses came along as well. Many have been living, with or without their children, on the American Garrison called Yongsan.

From left to right: Me, Louise, Anna and Barbara

For the past two years we’ve had four spouses who put their own career and income on hold to be with their husbands. This might seem strange for many of you who read my blog. However, Swedish women are self-supportive and are required to earn their own pension. But all of them, me included, have gotten a fabulous time and an insight in two different cultures, the American military and Korean. With a positive attitude and open mind these women have contributed to make NNSC known and broadened the contact network on different levels.

The Delegates we supported from left to right:

Per, Anders, Michael, Peter and Allan.

To acknowledge the three women that will return home soon we went on a superb Han River tour and Anders and I had the opportunity to tell them how thankful we were for their contribution.
