Greetings from S. Korea!

I wrote a article about K21 IFV in my blog. there aren't much explanation about K21 IFV, but lots of pics and videos instead.

this is the article: http://shutwho.blogspot.com/2010/03/k21-ifv-aka-nifv.html

I spent almost a month to search infos about K21.

and if you don't have broadband internet service, I advise you do not click that link. lots of traffic.

Regards, S. J. Kim a.k.a blue_shark

Pretty cool how the walls open up exposing the bladders which in turn fill allowing this to become amphib.
Wow, I may want one the next time I go to L.A, to drive the freeways.

Sooo where in Korea ya at?

[shutwho]

I’m new to here.

I must not post SK related info here?

[shutwho]

in GoSeong county, southernmost part of Korean peninsula.

It’s fine to post SK info, we appreciate learning from those who are there. Our own media does a pretty poor job.

The “ping” in post 3 was a way to alert another member (FReeper) to a subject that may be of interest to them

Welcome.

Hi, shutwho:

May I suggest that you include some bare-bones info in the headline of your posting, so that we laypersons will know what the *?”#! you’re talking about so that we can safely ignore it?

Only after seeing the image posted of that strange-looking camper did I understand that you are talking about some kind of recreational vehicle./humor

Honestly: The headline should be comprehensible even to the uninitiated.
Best,

What in the hell are you talking about!!!

[shutwho]

oops, my mistake.

well, it looks like I can’t edit my own post.

from my next subject, I’ll add some info(pics and some comments) in my post.

anyways, thanks, dude.

[shutwho]

copy that!

Thanks for the post. I spent two years in your country back in the mid seventies.The impact of your culture still remains in my family. My mother who is of German decent, and now 86 years old, still makes kimchee every year.After leaving the service I married my ex wife, who was from NYC, of Korean/Filipino ancestry. I have three children by her. Welcome to FR and learn to just ignore some of our self righteous posters.

i wonder how well the floaty's would work against RPG's

[shutwho]

NERA or Non-Explosive Reactive Armor will be added onto side skirts.

[Chode]

it would be cool if they are stiff enough to detonate an RPG

Shutwho, you're posts and info about South Korea are fine and welcome on here. As Slim explained in #7 (Thanks Slim) I was just sending an alert to another Free Republic member who is in South Korea and also posts information from there and the area. Those 'alerts to a thread of interest' are called "pings"...I think its named after the sound of a sonar scan in a submarine.
Welcome and we look forward to more of your info.
Stay safe.
