    “If war broke out and the conditions were too difficult to safely remove the naval mines in actual combat, we would use our own bodies to clear a safe pathway for our (landing) forces,” Zuo Feng, a frogman with the PLA Navy’s minesweeper unit, said in a testimonial.

        faced with the choice of maybe getting blown up by a mine… or definitely getting blown up by a mine and everyone you loved maybe getting added to the PLA navy minesweeper unit and maybe getting blown up by mines…

        well, yeah. sounds like their minesweeper unit is gonna have a lot of casualties.
