A Korean soldier belonging to the artillery division on the front lines of Gangwon Province was given his first leave. The first thing he did after arriving home was to look for his mobile phone. When his parents visited him at his camp, he had asked them to bring the phone with the battery fully charged.
He took his phone to the replacement training center but it was sent back home.
On his first leave, he read a Dong-A Ilbo article on military security information being leaked from the smartphones of soldiers. The story said soldiers were posting training photos and weapons on social networking sites. One posted a picture of armored cars on his Facebook account with the message, "I`ll be on a two-week tactical training session." Other soldiers secretly bring their smartphones to camp, and one who was discharged from the service said a third of soldiers have smartphones in the barracks.
