909　Military Intelligence 军事情报部

My job is to give service members and their families tours of the demilitarized zone in South Korea. Before taking people to a lookout point to view North Korea, we warn visitors to watch their heads climbing the stairs, as there is a low overhang. The tour guide, first to the top, gets to see how many people have not heeded his advice. On one tour I watched almost an entire unit hit their heads one after another as they came up the stairs. Curious, I asked their commander what unit they were from. “Military intelligence,” he replied.

我的工作是带领我们的工作人员及其家属到韩国的非军事区去参观。在进入瞭望朝鲜的瞭望塔之前，我们会警告大家上楼梯的时候要小心自己的头，不要撞到那个很低的凸出物。导游先上去，然后看看有多少人没有听他的忠告。有一次，我看到一个单位的人在上楼梯的时候，一个接一个，几乎每个人的头都撞到了。出于好奇，我问他们的司令他们属于哪个部门。他回答说：“军事情报部。”（译者注：intelligence，情报、智能）
