Yeah, but we're a very lethal trip wire at the least. To quote my old man talking about his time in Germany, we'd die defending that line, but we'd tear them to shreds with us, and let everything that goes through be destroyed by the other services.

It's a damn weird world we live in, where I could end up doing essentially the same thing my father dead, in a tank design older than I, to continue a war that my grandfather was almost es drafted for.

To be fair, he didn't exactly grow up as a peasant in NK. He went to schools all across Europe, and has a wealthy family, to boot. He was chunky well before he took command.
True, although he didn't get that really rounded look until he got surgery to look more like his father.

Pnx

Well here's hoping it doesn't come to full blown war. As much as I want NK to not be a thing, I want a war with NK to be a thing much less.

It's really getting to be a worrying situation, but still... it's not over 'til the fat leader sings.

Counter to what a lot of people seem to believe, North Korea likely doesn't have deployable nuclear warheads, at least not on ballistic missiles. I guess it's conceivable they have something they could shove off the loading ramp of a plane or drive up in a truck.

This all seems like a show of blatant posturing. IIRC, North Korea's doctrine is surprise attack through tunnels, infiltration and massive first strike, and all this big talk kinda defeats that. Unless Dear Manchild "invented" the double bluff during the last staff meeting and all the generals just applauded out of fear and mental fatigue.

They may have been after him. For a different reason to what he thought...

This just in. North Korean army is staffed entirely by chubby chasers.

Eh. Cannibalism is passe in the face of a reverse Zeus story. Go North Korean military go, seduce that god-figure! His essence is divine, so it's going to take like fifty of you! Make sure to turn into geese or something.

@Strife: You know as well as I do that the US forces in South Korea aren't there to hold off the North Koreans. They might delay them at best. Their job is to be a tripwire

Not really.  Yeah, the 30k americans in Korea aren't going to hold off the million man Korean army on their own.  But they'd have more then half a million South Koreans standing beside them (or in front of them).  The South Korean army is equipped with basically the same technology as the american military; the K1 tank is an M1 variant adopted to hilly terrain, they use a domestic version of the F16, etc.  It's not like the Korean war where the north could overwhelm the south with numbers until the Americans showed up to save the day.  Northern tanks wouldn't even be able to make it within firing distance of southern troops, they'd get lit up first.

In conclusion, there is literally no doubt we will win eventually. The question is to minimize potentia losses till then.

Seoul, Soul of Korea. :3

Also hostage of Korea.
Sky, please GTFO of Seoul. Find a nice place in the south, if you can't get out of Korea entirely. We like you too much for you to be cut off by a war, or worse, blown to smithereens by North Korean artillery.
