The ROKs don’t screw around. Period. To believe otherwise would be a mistake.
Vets in Vietnam who served around the ROK soldiers did not want to get into a scrap with them.
ping!
Well, I noticed that a bit when I lived in Korea 10 years ago. The older generation saw NK as a grave threat while the younger generation simply see NK as a weakened, famine ravished country.
The younger generation doesn’t understand that the famine of 1996-1997 was largely artificial (i.e. NK gov’t provoked) and that even though the regular people were starving, the army was fell fed and well trained and just as much a threat in 1997 as they were in 1957.
They see strength as a threat so that’s why they believe the US is more of a threat to peace than NK. In a way, it’s a compliment.
OTOH, I wouldn’t take too much stock in what the MSM have to say about SK either, afterall, they just elected a conservative as President, and plenty of younger folks voted for him.
Cammo Baggers on dirt! The South Koreans got it going on!!
Hey Joe, ya gotta love they left the fender marker lights on . . .
Stay away from paintball guns made in China...
