    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.

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