KATUSA

Acronym for Korean Augmentation To the US

KATUSAs are technically in Republic Of Korea Army (ROK Army), but detached to US army in Korea.

They live in US Army bases and spend most of their military service time with US soldiers.

They usually have their own military occupational specialty like American soldiers and also translate Korean into English and vice versa when doing combined field training with ROK Army.

Every man in Korea has to serve in the military for 21 months. Because it is needed to get high english test score to apply KATUSA, KATUSAs are almost all college students and highly educated.

They get promoted much faster than american soldiers to sergeant which is their final rank before ETS, but paid much less than US army soldiers because ROK government doesn't pay much to their mandatory military service members.

They contribute and encourage to mutual relationship between ROK army and US army.
All NCOs, soldiers, KATUSAs, and families, I appericate your service and sacrifices

We need a KATUSA to translate this

Katua

Katua, also spelled as "Katue" or "Katmulle" is a religious slur primarily directed at muslims of South Asia (Pakistan, India and Bangladesh) indicating their darker skin tone which stems from their ancestors being lower caste converts. Can often be found ancestry forging by claiming to be Arab, Turkish, Persian, Afghan or Central Asian.

However in recent times, just like the N-word in America, many muslims of Pakistan have started to reclaim the slur and use it with pride and proudly identify as Katua.
