The goal of this study is to examine the effects of the joint education programthat was newly constituted by the South Korean Army, Navy, and Air ForceAcademy in 2012 to improve the South Korean military’s joint operational capability. This paper investigates whether the joint education program bridged the culturalgaps that had existed historically among the armed services, resulting in a greaterexchange of camaraderie and information. The findings demonstrate the positiveimpact of a joint education program on the exchange of camaraderie. In the laterstage of joint education, military cadets are less likely to exchange camaraderiewith those who came from the same military academy; but they are more likely toexchange camaraderie with those who share the same room in the military barracks,and with those who participate in formal training in the same classroom. In comparisonto the exchange of camaraderie, however, the joint education program failed toproduce a collaborative atmosphere in which three random service academy cadetsactively exchanged information with one another. The South Korean case providesa model for building cohesion across different service members by using education,while also demonstrating its limitations.
