Having never been to Korea myself, I cannot speak personally. However, I have heard many of horror stories. It was always surprising that a policy letter or something of the sort was never put in place.
What are your thoughts?

I was stationed in Korea at Humphreys from 94-95. The girls were pretty much all Korean then. Not like today with the other 3rd world people taking over the "role". There is no need for a ban if the SM just said "no thanks" like most of us did. Soldiers are going to drink and that's a hard one to stop. But things are much more "non-alcoholic" today. So, maybe it's for the best with sex trafficking and prostitution, that they will be out of work. But we had an "underground" (literally in a basement) club in Humphreys so, this will probably continue for a while.

And that was my first impression as well, MSG Wade Huffman & SFC Melker Johansson. There is a yearly mandated class against human trafficking yet we do nothing about the obvious sex trafficking in Korea.
Long overdue, to say the least.

The ban make sense if the US Armed Forces are serious about fighting sex trafficking.
