SECRET FOR TRAINING ONLY Return to Index HEADQUARTERS, CFC 9518 Seoul, ROK 1June 19XX APPENDIX 6 TO ANNEX F TO CFC OPLAN (KOREA) 9518X-XX MEDIA REGISTRATION 1. News media representatives (NMR) are accredited at the Host Country Ministry of Information upon arrival, and then registered at each major subordinate command. CFC PAOs will register all NMRs and issue an appropriate badge for that MSC. NMRs without the correct accreditation/registration badge will be escorted to the nearest public affairs office or commander. To enforce this requirement soldiers will not talk to media representatives who cannot display the correct accreditation/registration badge. This is not a punitive measure, merely an attempt to identify numbers of media in each respective area. 2. To be accredited/registered, and to maintain their accreditation/registration, NMRs must agree to follow the established media ground rules, and provide the following documents and information: a. News media representatives desiring to cover CFC forces must satisfy the following requirements for registration: (1) Provide picture ID and Host Country Ministry of Information accreditation badge. (2) Have proper equipment and clothing. (3) Agree to abide by general and specific ground rules. Appendix 3. (4) Have necessary personal equipment and supplies to support themselves. (5) Fill out and sign Tabs A through F to this Appendix. 3. Once paragraph 2 is complete, the JIB will fill out a press badge, photograph the NMR and laminate the photo onto the badge. 4. NMRs who operate in subordinate AOs do not have to resign media ground rules agreements. Possession of a press badge certifies that accreditation/registration agreements have been completed. Subordinate PAOs will remind NMRs that all agreements are still in effect. 5. All media on the accredited list will have read and signed the ground rules.
