I knew him back in the 60's in the US. Then he moved back to Korea where he taught at the military academy (not TKD), I meet with him a few times in Korea, then he moved back to the US. He was with Son Duk Son, but no longer is with that group, he probably teaches the Pyung-Ahn forms. I have not seen him since the 70's but he is someone I have always respected.

The idea is to let people from the HKD community write articles, put them together in a PDF and people will be able to download this PDF for free. The dead-line for the first issue is set at November 15th. If anyone wants to join us in putting this magazine together feel free to email your article. (together with digital pictures you might have) I know some of the people publish monthly newsletters for their schools. Maybe they can look in their archives to see if there is anything they would like to share. Copyright of the article stays with the original author. By sending in your article you just give us the right to publish it for free. -- kind regards, Klaas Barends http://www.hapkido.nl/ Dutch HKD Federation http://www.sangmookwan.com/ SangMooKwan International Training Center Korea --__--__-- Message: 8 From: Ray To: the_dojang@martialartsresource.net (The_Dojang) Date: Sun, 6 Nov 2005 19:52:29 -0800 (PST) Subject: [The_Dojang] America's ranking Hapkido Grandmaster Reply-To: the_dojang@martialartsresource.net FWIW... >From the Massachusetts Daily Collegian: - Hapkido Seminar with Grandmaster Labodycz, head of the American Hapkido Association, will be in the Boyden Gym.
