Joint computer-simulated “command post training” between the U.S. and South Korean forces scheduled to take place this spring has been postponed due to increasing concerns over the spread of the novel coronavirus in the South, the Combined Forces Command (CFC) announced Thursday.
The two sides “agreed to postpone the training based on the severity of the present COVID-19 situation within South Korea,” the CFC Public Affairs Office said in a statement.
