Noll has Breakfast on the Road 581st Signal on Hill 775 - South Korea (1951)
10. Noll has Breakfast on the Road

The morning after Lt. Guyot and I stayed at a Korean's home they fed us breakfast. What you see is not a typical native's breakfast but what you would serve to an important guest. We were honored to be so treated. We left several substantial gifts of food for his family and the leader of the town. The kids were a delight to play with and we had a nice but short visit. I was not involved with the Lt.'s business and just waited for him while he did his business at Army headquarters. I appreciated him asking me to drive for him on the trip.

The breakfast consisted of rice, a delicious soup, boiled cabbage with pork, some bean sprouts with pork, kimchi and some other things such as red pepper sauce they put on the rice. Kimchi is a pickled, very spicy hot cabbage. It has the same effect as eating garlic on your breath. I liked it.
