    These aren’t cadets. They’re probably extremely loyal and well trained. What they get is real modern warfare experience they will bring back home. Maybe, as a remote possibility, they’ll get nuclear info to improve on their own projects.

      No amount of training will make you ready for actual combat. There’s a hell of a lot of difference when actual bullets are whizzing by you than when someone’s yelling at you to pretend they are.

        Fair enough. We’ll have to see how it plays out. I have a feeling they’ll be more reliable and motivated than most of their Russian counterparts. Who knows, they might not even see the front line, it’s all just a mystery.

        Right… that’s why they are putting them in actual combat. Whoever survives will be elite NK soldiers.

          Whoever survives

          That part is doing a lot of heavy lifting here.
