Anti-war activist Cindy Sheehan (R), whose son Casey was killed during combat in Iraq in April 2004, leaves after participating in a candlelight vigil in the village of Daechoori in Pyongtaek, where South Korea's defence ministry had fenced and demolished houses to make way for the expansion of a U.S. base, about 80 km (50 miles) south of Seoul, November 20, 2006. A delegation of U.S. peace and social justice activists led by Sheehan arrived in Seoul on Sunday for a six-day visit to object to the expansion of Camp Humphrey, the U.S. military base in Pyongtaek, and to protest against a plan for a free trade agreement (FTA) between South Korea and the U.S. The sign reads, "Plant seeds of peace in Pyongtaek".
