In August of 1976, two United Nations Command Soldiers were murdered in the Joint Security Area. As what should have been an act of routine maintenance, turned deadly, US Forces in Korea went to DEFCON 3, and tension between North and South Korea reached one of its highest peaks.
Every year, United Nations Command Security Battalion holds a memorial service to honor the two killed by North Korean soldiers during the fight leading to Operation Paul Bunyan.
