SEOUL -- South Korea carried out a rare show of military might in the heart of its capital city Tuesday, highlighting the security-minded posture of the current administration and the country's growing status as an arms exporter.
A roughly two-kilometer stretch of road was sectioned off near the landmark Gwanghwamun Square in Seoul as the country marked its 75th annual Armed Forces Day. The parade -- the first in a decade -- featured hardware such as tanks and was punctuated by thousands of troops marching in lockstep and shouting military slogans.
