Apparently some North Koreans have already gone awol? No doubt they think they’ll at least get better fed by the Ukrainians than back home🤔 and I doubt if any do refuse to fight they definitely won’t want to go home!

Pretty brave of them can't begin to imagine what will happen to there families if they get caught

Three generations in internment camps, apparently.

I read that Russia employs NK tree fallers around the area where they have a very small border.

The money is paid direct to the NK government.

But that’s just what I read, as likely to be BS as not.

Russia has thousands of NK workers on a regular basis, there are work camps all along the border, and deeper into Russia. But the terms are clear to all workers before they leave Korea: desertion brings strict punishment upon three generations of your family.

 

You are absolutely right, it might all be BS, but that's what we are told by everyone who escapes, and I doubt they all got together beforehand to get their stories straight.

Too f*cking right! 

I'd generally have been happy with anywhere west of the Rhine, but there really are some absolute shitholes out there to be born into. And North Korea (among others) is right up there at the top of the list.

North Korean troops about to start combat in this biblical fcuk up . More used to mountain type combat apparently . I think they will suffer heavier losses than the ( on average ) 1200 Russians a day . What say you ?

Not so sure Stubby? There are still plenty of chaps who will be at remembrance parades next week who have a direct first hand experience of what they’re capable of? Backed up of course by Chinese on that occasion!
