Nice TLS Republic of Korea (RoK, South Korea) Army officers marching irregular army soldiers through streets of Seoul, South Korea, shortly before Communist forces invaded the city; soldiers march with carbine rifles shoulderbound. Panning TLS South Korean man fleeing city, pulling cart loaded with bundled belongings, passing by marching Rok irregular army soldiers. VO: "... some get only three days of training before marching to the front. As soldiers move up into the lines, civilians flee, taking with them all their earthly belongings."
