I am simply happy to see that Korean-War era nylon (polyethelenenamenadiamine) magazine pouches are being re-issued for the Big Red 1, and pleased to note that Woodland Camo patterns are now deemed appropriate for the South Korean office environment (replete with TRANSFORMERS headgear, faux-Lay-bans, and 42nd street leather gloves) courtesy Jacques Tabernack Surplus, Montreal Quebec, with matching Narcotics Anonymous belt boucles. Don't ask me how I know. But eat your heart out, General Patton! PS: Get Shorty! At least HE looks like a decent cadet!

Bad Mouth the North Korean Army all you want wiseguy, but realize that orphans in Aroostook County would kill for the lil guy's hat*. Also realize that with a very short lifespan, North Koreans are drafted for national service at age 9.

In re the other thing: obviously what really happened here is that The NKs received a faultily translated copy of some essays by Swift, and completely missed the ironical intent.

God knows what they would make of the Hardy Boys.

Shoot low, men!
