R.o.K Marine Corps was established on April 15, 1949 at Deoksan Air Base in Jinhae. When they fought in the Korean War and the Vietnam War, they were sure to win, so they were loved and trusted by the people. Strong combat power is only possible when an advanced barracks culture is established. Today's new generation of soldiers have strong characteristics ; self-centered and individualistic. R.o.K Marine Corps officers must understand the characteristics of the new generation of soldiers and strive to develop creative leadership in order to make them utilize their characteristics. In addition, as cutting-edge science and technology develops along with the 4th industrial revolution, R.o.K Marine Corps officers should work hard to acquire professional tactical knowledge and self-development. Therefore, Marine Corps officers should do their best to understand the characteristics of the new generation of soldiers and demonstrate leadership to become a strong force trusted by the people.
