베트남전시 한국군의 독자적 작전지휘권 행사와 채명신 사령관 역할 연구

Abstract

ROK and the U.S. agreed to transfer the wartime operational control of the Korean forces on December 1, 2015. North Korean nuclear missile threats occurred last year, ROK and US decided to have estimates on the terms and periods for the re­postponement of wartime operational control(OPCON) in the first half of 2014 in the 45th SCM. I think that there is significance to study how the Korean Forces conducted the operational command(OPCOM) independently in the Vietnam war. As the U.S. army intervenes in the Vietnam war under the goal of preventing communization of South-East Asia. US requested dispatch of troops to nations of the alliance in 1964. ROK started to dispatch its troops to Vietnam after dispatch's bills pass of congress, the issue of OPCOM arose, and Chae Myung Shin, the first Korean commander in the Vietnam war, made a big role to obtain original OPCOM. When Commander Chae commander passed away last year, he was buried in the Vietnam war veteran burials of soldiers following his will, being the first to be buried in the National Cemetery as a former general. In the 50th year anniversary of the dispatch of ROK army in Vietnam war, I would like to highlight the role of the commander Chae Myoung Shin to conduct original ROK forces OPCOM.
