North Korean soldiers (back) and US soldiers of the United Nations Command Security Battalion stand guard during a ceremony on the 57th anniversary of the signing of the cease-fire agreement of the Korean War at the Military Demarcation Line in the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) in the border village Panmunjom, South Korea, 27 July 2010.

Meeting at the DMZ

I wonder what the interaction was like between the soldiers, if they had much chance to speak. Also, I wonder how the North Korean soldiers perceived the American soldiers, given what I understand to be their limited exposure to foreign tourists and media.
