YONGSAN GARRISON, Seoul (NNS) -- Republic of Korea and the United States Forces postponed a planned Anti-Submarine Warfare Exercise Sept. 4, which was to begin Sept. 5 and continue until Sept. 9, 2010.

The delay is due to imminent arrival of Tropical Storm 10W, which is forecasted to enter the waters west of the Korean Peninsula on Sept. 6, 2010.

Although the alliance is capable of operating in all weather conditions, this decision was made in the interest of safety for the participants. Both high winds and heavy seas would have directly impacted the exercise area and training objectives.

The ASW exercise will be rescheduled for a later date, but the new dates have not been set.
