I think that it’s worrisome that this weekend is Easter Sunday. Think Yom Kippur. They may think that we will all be in church (unfortunately, very mistaken). It’s fairly close to a full moon, they have no good night vision stuff (at least not in any quantity), and we do. So, it’s actually a more even playing field for a low-tech aggressor to have the moon.

Also, sadly, I think the troops we have on that border are somewhat sacrificial, a trip wire, and they know this.

This has got to be the toughest assignment in the military.

I wonder where the Chinese are on this. Their boy is getting a little out of control. I’m sure that he was amusing for a while...now...not so funny.

The Pentagon said on Friday that the US would not be intimidated, and was ready to defend both its bases and its allies in the region. Lt Col Catherine Wilkinson, a Pentagon spokesperson, said the US would not be intimidated. "The United States is fully capable of defending itself and our allies against a North Korean attack. We are firmly committed to the defence of South Korea and Japan," she said.

Secretary of state John Kerry will visit the region in a week or so for meetings with Japan, China and South Korea, the State Department said.

Sounds like the USSA intends to send a couple of battalions of homosexuals and bull dykes against the NK's and then blame the GOP when the south falls.

Lt Col Catherine Wilkinson and John Kerry, talk about lightweights.

I guess I should be glad my Special Forces son is in Afghanistan right now. My sympathies with our SK soldiers and their families.
