Pizza Hut Wendy's and Micky D's should now be considered off limits!!! Instead replaced by Choi's Korean Buffet, Kim's Happy Place, and Pak's Korean House. Once through the doors consider it game on and pride by the wayside. A hearty Anyehaseoh (Hello!) is the greeting of the day with kimpop, bulgogi, and oi kimchee for the afternoon or evening fare.
There are DOZENS of Korean places to eat in Fayetteville...this is much to his benefit as he can actually practice his language skills on a daily basis OUTSIDE the classroom in a social environment.
This is also viewed as culturally respectful and will place him leaps and bounds ahead when he actually has to utilize his language in a real world environment.

He should consider himself incredibly fortunate to have 1st SFG(A) as his potential assignment. The only way he could have done better was to have been assigned to 7th GP

Best of luck to you and your son.
