These were the guys doing the demining and EOD in Kursk. Something about the guys in front seems odd...
>>64629041What is this mysterious unknown technology?
>>64629048Five guys got crippled, Kim's speech mentions the difficulty of moving around unobserved.
>>64629058120 day deployment, there are probably ones with missing limbs but those guys most likely are still in hospital, the guy he is hugging has both legs pinned together.
>>646290669 dead, individually honored, monuments for all of them, Party membership for the entire family. An amazingly good benefits package all things considered.
>>64629075You'll never see a scumbag like Putin doing this.So 9 dead and at least 5 in wheelchairs plus whoever got limbs blown off, not too bad for a Regimental deployment. As a reminder this wasn't really a combat mission just demining and EOD but drones don't care about that.
>>64629075>>64629081Nice thread.
>>64629041I hope they suffer.And I hate you too schizo.But you do deliver very crisp pictures from whatever propaganda outlet you steal them from.
>>64629081>9 dead and at least 5 in wheelchairsKek no. Probably 10x that. I doubt the soldiers in this parade even went to Russia. Those who did have now been dangerously exposed to the outside world. They are very likely being brainwashed again in reeducation camps.
>>64629081Meeting the families. Took him half a day for a week on TV the last time since he insists on mentioning each one individually and their families, as >>64629083 points out there were alot more last time.KCNA for more details, this is it image wise for a overview.Speech is very upfront about the difficulty they face and the technological supremacy they face.>>64629089First off screw you. Second off thanks, i have to scrub each picture individually since they imbed javascript viruses in their pictures sometimes. Harmless unless you have an ancient browser but always convert .kcmsf files then shred them.>>64629093No, they don't mind admitting loses, they admitted all the ones they got last time individually. Whenever possible they actually showed footage of their moments of death if it was captured or Ukraine published it. They are all going to be used as instructors.
>>64629058
>>64629105They are so over emotional about everything, its like their primary product is reaction images.
>>64629041Interesting how they adopted baseball caps into their attire.
>This regiment was formed on May 28 according to the decisions and orders of our Party Central Military Commission to build on the valuable victory in the overseas military operations.May 28th=528th. Interesting to note it was formed just for this operation, the guys next to the unit flag mean later we might get footage of a chrome AK award ceremony. >a miracle of turning a vast area of danger zone into a safe and secure one in a matter of less than three monthsSo just demining, if it was direct combat they would have said so.>where even a trifle slip or carelessness was not allowed and where even going to and from the battleground was accompanied by combats, you, caring for your comrades-in-arms first, shielded one another from the bursting shrapnelSo they got droned but probably smaller ones given that they were not on the front hence the low losses.>Your brilliant battle results were also associated with the devoted efforts of the signalmen and medics who accomplished their tasks faithfully risking their lives almost every dayWait wait wait, the.....Medics? Hope they don't share this technology with Russia.>>64629135I noticed that, it looks like they immediately adopted a extremely practical looking uniform. They almost look like Americans doing a parade.
>>64629089The ukraine is running out of men, NK is running out of space to store their new reserve of Russian gold :)
>>64629041Observation: They do a 'missing man formation' as seen from this image and the one below, if you count the missing guys and subtract the 9 KIAs there are five more guys who are so messed up they couldn't attend.Also the steps being a giant Rd Cross is a neat touch.
>>64629158*ahem*You are aware i'm a fanatical Russia hater and that Russia doesn't deserve a single drop of Korean blood right?More red cross plus missing men.
>>64629165Nobody cares what you think lol
>>64629165Don’t let the thread get derailed keep postin
>>64629176Wisdom.You aren't imagining it, the unit really does have a row of guys with mismatched uniforms. Some of them even have slightly different hat styles.
>>646291859 KIA, 9 guys with slightly differently colored uniforms. Looks like they had a functional replenishment system while in Kursk. Circumstantial but seems to indicate the loss numbers are accurate.
>>64629041Over 6,000 North Korean soldiers have been killed or injured while fighting alongside Russia’s forces in Kursk where Ukraine has presence due to its incursion, the UK ministry of defence (MoD) has assessed.“Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) forces have highly likely sustained more than 6,000 casualties in offensive combat operations against Ukrainian forces in the Russian oblast of Kursk,” the ministry of defence said in its latest assessment, using North Korea’s official name.https://www.independent.ie/world-news/europe/north-koreans-have-lost-morethan-6000-casualties-in-russia/a221438793.htmlhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e-molxOXIaU
>>64629199These weren't combat troops, they were doing demining and EOD. You are talking about the first and second waves of combat troops and the numbers you posted are more or less accurate, they match up with what the DPORK itself admitted to. Damn shame they had to die for such a unworthy ally.Seems they changed the style slightly recently, the uniforms don't perfectly match up.
>>64629212>MY LEADER I CAN WALK!>Naw bro, sit down we gave to that chair for a reason you all sorts of fucked up
>>64629058If you zoom in you can see what great fun they are having and how much fun their holiday was
>>64629225Families.
>>64629199500 Colombians died for ukraine, but unlike the norks they don't get benefits or ceremonies kek
>>64629233Are you seriously trying to convince this board that the North Koreans took 7 KIA and 7 WIA when the UK MOD and Ukrainians say they took over 6000 casualties and we have video of hundreds of them either dead or being killed??
>>64629239This is one unit, you illiterate, shit-stirring brownie.
>>64629236We're not playing whatabout. If you are unironically supporting north korea form within the USA (a nation it is still formally at war with) them you are an Alien Enemy and subject to deportation.
>>64629243Post the others or were they a little dead?
>>64629239>>64629199>6000 Curious choice for your made up propaganda number. It just so happens that russia sent 6000 pigs in body bags back to ukraine after the kursk debacle
>>64629244mor"What is the Alien Enemies Act?The Alien Enemies Act of 1798 is a wartime authority that allows the president to detain or deport the natives and citizens of an enemy nation. The law permits the president to target these immigrants without a hearing and based only on their country of birth or citizenship. Although the law was enacted to prevent foreign espionage and sabotage in wartime, it can be — and has been — wielded against immigrants who have done nothing wrong, have evinced no signs of disloyalty, and are lawfully present in the United States. It is an overbroad authority that may violate constitutional rights in wartime and is subject to abuse in peacetime."https://www.brennancenter.org/our-work/research-reports/alien-enemies-act-explainedNo Peace Treaty: The Korean War stopped with the 1953 Armistice Agreement (ceasefire), not a formal peace treaty, so a technical state of war persists.U.S. Role: As the U.S. led the UN Command during the war, it remains technically at war with North Korea.
>>64629232They know it sucked, everyone knows it sucked. Kinda the whole point of the event.Everyone gets a hug. And a nice apartment, party memberships, the deluxe package.>>64629236They should 100%.>>64629239Absolutely not, this isn't the combat units they sent it is the 'non-combat' demining troops they sent to kursk AFTER the combat to clear all the EOD. They themselves admitted to around 6000 KIA/WIA in the first two phases. These guys were just cleaning up mines and unexploded bombs and occasionally getting VOGed by long range quad drones. >>64629246That has been posted plenty, this is an entirely separate thing. These are the Engineers they sent to clean up the mess afterwards hence the relatively low losses. These guys were never on the front lines.>>64629253Fuck off vatnik, you didn't deserve these mens lives.
>>64629253Again it's not a game of what about, you are in the USA. Do you support teh North Korean Regime and believe it to be right and are you loyal to it's leadership?
>>64629257>Again it's not a game of what about, you are in the USA. Do you support the North Korean Regime and believe it to be right and are you loyal to it's leadership?
>>64629258>>64629259Are you talking to him or me? If you don't know what a tripcode is you just outed yourself as someone who has never been on 4chan before.
>>64629262Norktard often posts with his tripcode off. Don't lecture me you retarded Putin loving idiot I'm you're best bet of staying alive and right now that's not a good bet. I can have have you served up like a tennis ball.
>>64629225Does Kim’s hairline look to be receding?
>>64629041The fact that those 5 guys in a wheelchair came back home goes to show that even fanatical Norks care more about their men than vatniks who leave them to die.
>>64629268>Norktard often posts with his tripcode off. Don't lecture me you retarded Putin loving idiot I'm you're best bet of staying alive and right now that's not a good bet. I can have have you served up like a tennis ball.Besides the schizo LARPing you really missed the memo didn't you? I despise Putin and Russia in general, the reason i want to see the DPRK support Russia is because the longer Russia fights the more of them die. The more dead Russians the better and the more likely they are to collapse, not just short term but for a extended period. Once the Norks have stolen everything they can from Russia they will turn to the next power that can offset China: The USA. My end goal is a US/DPRK alliance, the same way Nixon used the PRC against the USSR. >>64629286Hard to tell, big foreheads are a family trait.
>>64629291wot happens to nork pows? will kim ever exchange them or are they dead to the furher for surrendering?
Last picture from the event, concert!>>64629286From the picture below you can see that receding hair is a national issue.>>64629299No one knows, there are only two of them. Supposedly one wants to defect and the other doesn't. Since the RoK is handling it for Ukraine there is no way to be sure since they lie almost as much as the North.
>>64629291>>64629259>>Again it's not a game of what about, you are in the USA. Do you support the North Korean Regime and believe it to be right and are you loyal to it's leadership?
>>64629306>Since the RoK is handling it for Ukraine there is no way to be sure since they lie almost as much as the North.Obvious brown is Obvious
>>64629317what did he mean by this?
>>64629322No one is anonymous
>>64629319I don't think he's brown.He's just insane.Got so deep into researching NK it did a number on him. To understand Juche has like a Lovecraftian quality, once you grasp it, it drives you mad.
North Korea has no need to hide the number of casualties, since it is sending troops to a war it has no obligation to participate in. Rather, it should loudly proclaim this number as a bargaining chip with Russia. This is evident from the quality of the ceremony.
>>64629322Teenage schizo newfag pretending he's the CIA or some shit like that so he can LARP as a internet tough guy. >>64629332Honestly besides the US/DPRK alliance thing i just think their equipment and uniforms look cool. There is also a anthropological thing where it's like looking at aliens. Their system is a nightmare that i would never espouse and their government is nothing any human would ever want to live under. They would make a excellent weapon against the PRC though.>>64629338You get it. They brag about it. Remember their whole culture is about being the underdogs who sacrifice everything to overcome impossible odds, if they don't get bloody it undercuts the entire founding myth of their nation.
>>64629338Norktard Schizo posting without trip againWe know it's you.
>>64629317Bro chill just let the tripfag post. You’re not derailing this thread
Another jucheGOD victory
>>64629342>Teenage schizo newfag pretending he's the CIA I don’t see Dr. Pavel
>>64629258Hell yeah I support best korea over weimarica
>>64629332You wouldn’t get it.
>>64629413okHe's isolated and more of a danger to himself than anything else.
>>64629199I really don't think you can trust Ukie casualty numbers. They claim to kill or maim 1100+ invaders every day, but every video they put out only hits one or two people. Where are the photos of vast fields of Russian corpses? Can you show me even one full platoon mulched? I'm sure Russia's losses are high, the Ukies have a clear motivation to exaggerate their K/D though.
>>64629461Careful, you’ll get the same few pics from bakhmut or the early war
>>64629461>I really don't think you can trust Ukie casualty numbers.kys before the sbu do
>>64629104>i have to scrub each picture individually since they imbed javascript viruses in their pictures sometimes. Harmless unless you have an ancient browser but always convert .kcmsf files then shred them.qrd?
I wonder how many FBI agents are working on Norktard's file.
>>64629058Grim and disapproving expressions across everyone in the rear.
>>64629501Random javascript code and webscript in their sites. It's harmless unless you are running some ancient shit like windows 95 but it's best to be careful. .kcmsf is a extension only used by their news agencies and no where else, it could be a image, PHP, a zip file, anything. It acts as a mask so you have no idea what you are dealing with, image files are (probably) fine since it is obvious what they are but you can't upload them anywhere without converting them. I don't know enough about the specifics of how it works to explain it properly, all i really understand is don't save anything but images.>>64629593I think that is their default setting when they don't know what to do, notice they can't see Kim's face so they can't get a hint from his reaction. The guy immediately above the wheelchair guys looks genuinely choked up. Is that Kim Yo Jong above his head in the black coat? Hadn't thought to see if she was there. Can't tell, doesn't look like the other sister Sol.
>>64629576The power of juche will keep him safe and permanently one step ahead. Even if captured, his ideological purity will keep his spirit unbroken
>>64629075Fuck off and die you treasonous shill
>>64629618Pathetic and impotent flailing, tsk tsk
>>64629611Not sure, the woman behind the row of seats might very well might Kim Yo Jong though despite being badly out of focus, she is rumored to be pregnant and the woman in this image sure as hell looks it:
>>64629149>Wait wait wait, the.....Medics? Hope they don't share this technology with Russia. It is an under-appreciated detail of this conflict that, since the very beginning, the Norks have actually prioritized their soldiers' lives much more than the russians, in a variety of ways>Earliest assaults were 1950s-style human waves; these were stopped within 2 days due to high losses for no gains>Koreans placed under russian command would sometimes refuse to follow retarded orders>This (and the irate Nork commanders watching their men get used as cannon fodder by russians) led to russians below brigade level not having absolute command of any norks>Norks had a significantly higher ratio of medics, casevacs (and litter carries), and surviving wounded>Norks pulled their combat forces out of Kursk entirely when their losses started getting too high (still well below russian unit averages)Like don't get me wrong. Their losses would be appalling by any Western military's standard. But for a country constantly on the brink of famine, with a fuckhuge number of soldiers to replace the ones lost, they really have surprised me with how they've taken measures to mitigate their losses of human life.And yeah although this is obviously a propaganda stunt for Kim, at the end of the day they're treating their wounded veterans (and their families) with great respect and at significant resource cost. By contrast the russians have tons of amputee mobiks on the streets, committing crimes because they're broke, etc... vid related.
>>64629257I'm sickly curious about how you justify being a nork aparatchik without also supporting Ziggia
>>64629712NTA but the norks, for all their faults, have done a pretty damn good job of keeping their ancient equipment in top shape, and (as seen in Kursk) in training their infantry to a reasonable standard, despite being a resource deprived shithole. And they stay in their own lane, as opposed to russoid mongrels trying to rape and pillage any civilized nation near them
>>64629342>and their government is nothing any human would ever want to live under.I've seen you shill for them unironically.
>>64629716>training their infantry to a reasonable standardThey started with human wave attacks.
>>64629611screenshots should work then.
>>64629244I bet you're not even white
>>64629611>Is that Kim Yo Jong above his head in the black coatyes
>>64629717Holy based if he did
>>64629653these were valuable soldiers, cream of the crop, sent there to become actual veterans and learn the ropes of modern warfareKim isn't stupid at all, even just the idea of sending them in to do demining was genius - close enough to see actual combat, not really so deep down in the thick of it that they would risk the unit actually getting wiped out or worse, captured
>>64629041Very interesting, cheers for shedding light on them.
>>64629244pvt gomez, nobody cares about your crypto-thirdie shithole
>>64629257>They should 100%.no, those colombians are mercs.
NK didn’t gave up nukes, which was smart move, unlike that retard moment from Ukraine. Didn’t fuck up their demographics with ukr-rus war. Looking you both ziggers and piggers. Took (offically) reasonable casulties. Gained valuable experience.
>>64629291>My end goal is a US/DPRK allianceUnfathomably based, US has a long history of turning enemies in to friendsUSJapVietNork super pact when

>>64629849> be zogbot> get cuckedMany such cases!
>>64629653>North Korean careThat's because in North Korea the army is both a internal labor pool/security force, and has the best quality of life outside of party officials, if word leaks (easier now because of Chinese smartphones) that they're seen as disposable and that will breed resentment and dissent.
>>64629814>crypto thirdie shitholeWhat the fuck does this even mean?
>>64629932"crypto" as in "secret">What the fuck does this even mean?hurr durr America is LE THIRDIE SHITHOLE because I read some Internet memes posted by niggers and white trash about working 3 jobs or something, despite the OECD reporting that the average American earns 75% more than the average citizen of a developed country and pays at least 15% less tax
>>64629041Guys sent to the war but not sent to the front are medal farming mid level family types earning a social step up. MOSTLY you're not coming home without a limb or dying in these units. This is a generation's way to manufacture heroes.Does it say great things about Norkia? 6/10 about two points above average. It's gonna take a while to get over the million man boat flip and the initial combat experiences in ukraine from the meatwavers.
>>64629982Oh, because I was about to slap down some HDI pain on that literal third worlder.>white trash working 3 jobsBecause of illegal immigrants driving down labor costs, companies don't need to be competitive when they can pick up groups of illegals, I've seen it happen (I work security).
>>64629291>My end goal is a US/DPRK allianceBest Korea can never be a more useful ally than Worst Korea
>>64629306Fuck, I wonder if it’s a nutrition issue or are Koreans just more prone to early hair loss? Is this a thing in the south?
>>64629286It's just a strategic relocation. A gesture of goodwill, if you will.
>>64629461Anon do you have any idea just how long the frontline is
>>64629461What you and many other retards don't seem to understand is that the vast majority of the daily dead ziggers is just penal troops walking towards west with not much more than an AK-74 on their back, distributed all over the entire front.Russia is literally just sending an endless stream of meat in hopes of finding a weak spot to exploit. Hundreds every single day. Sometimes it even works. Zapp would be proud.
>>64629903Nice booba.
>>64629722Yes, but despite this, there are many many russian accounts that on the individual and squad tactics level, the norks in kursk were far better trained than they (russians) were
>>64629083>Progozhin's disguiseslost
>>64629041With commentary
>>64629712Russians are scum, simple as. Every Asian problem can be fixed if the US can flip the DPRK like Nixon flipped china. If an accommodation is reached with them then they become a defacto US ally and the only remaining problem is China. If that happens a US backed hostile DPRK becomes a security nightmare for the PRC. Also their tanks look cool. >>64629741No, most KNCA pics are HD frames from their TV, you would lose a huge amount of image quality.>>64629717The fish farms, greenhouses and robbing Russia? Hell yes i'll shill that all day erry day, they are a good thing. >>64629819Freedom fighters in the true sense.>>64629848We already have Vietnam.>>64629849They literally have mandatory GFs now.>>64630078Why not both?

>>64630793>all three current governments want it.I'm gonna need a sauce on Kim wanting to ally with Murrica.
>>64629104In a weird way that actually kind of respectful. It's not trying to cover it in false glory and really grounds it in reality.
>>64629244If he's a US citizen then he wouldn't be subject to the Alien Enemy Act. He could be tried for treason, arguably, but given that all he does is simp for North Korea that'll run you straight into First Amendment problems outside of a serious reopening of hostilities with the Norks, at which point the Constitution usually takes a back seat.
>>64629291>My end goal is a US/DPRK alliance, the same way Nixon used the PRC against the USSRDelusional.I admire that, Norktard. Godspeed in your quest to make the impossible possible.
>>64629461>Where are the photos of vast fields of Russian corpses? Can you show me even one full platoon mulched?There's a few that match your description, but the over 100 videos of russians topping themselves in the field are a little bit more telling. Vid related shows a platoon and their MBT getting mulched, as requested. https://files.catbox.moe/bttvq3.mp4>>64629081>You'll never see a scumbag like Putin doing this.It seems he does have some loyalty to his glowies, I'm reading a book called swap about the recent US/Russia prisoner exchanges -Viktor Bout/Griner etc... and it does seem Monke idolizes a particular kind of deep cover operative because there was a TV show about them when he was a kid, so he does go the full way when it comes to rescuing them, including meeting them personally in welcome ceremonies, etc
>>64629105>That asshole is getting a hug from dear leader, lucky bastard>I wish I'd been blown up
>>64629212So, are the Norks producing their own digiflora clone uniforms, or did they get these straight from the Russians?
>>64630831Not ally with so much as reach an accommodation that lets them get sanctions relief and some sort of trade deal. Both them and the south want to recognize each other, the only real hold up is neocons who insist on them giving up their nukes which will never happen. Such a deal is more or less inevitable at this point, the only question is when. Once it happens the DPRK (and Japan/RoK) will focus on it's only remaining security threat which is China. When that happens and the PRC tries to throw it's weight around the DPRK will quickly get discounted 'agricultural assistance' like Cummins 'tractor' engines and transmissions that 'accidently' fit their tanks perfectly.>>64630803They are starting to more or less force single women to find partners by threatening withholding benefits if they aren't married by a certain age. It is mostly propaganda pressure campaigns about traditional family life and needing more Norks for the moment >>64630852It is more effective. No one would believe them if they told the people it went perfectly, they know they are outmatched. Soldiers (and societies) are far more effective if they have realistic expectations. The US hyped up Japanese abilities in WW2 so that the troops expected worse than what they encountered, it was highly effective. >>64630855But i'm simping for the USA at the same time and promoting what is for all intents is current US government policy regarding co-existence with them. Sort of ruins your fantasy. >>64630866If you don't shoot for the stars you will never leave the ground. And we need to get to the stars, those smug imperialist sacks of shit masquerading as giant balls of hydrogen have been looking down on us long enough. >>64630875Both. Fucking multicam.
>>64629083kek saved
>>64629041>5 crippled guys back from the front>a few hundred conscripts that never left the country, so it looks like most of them returned>>64629075>9 deadAs far as the party will admit :^)>>64629083Kek.
>>64630912I find it curious that western intelligence agencies, Ukraine and the DPRK itself all agree about the DPRK's losses and deployment numbers but random trolls on 4chan don't. So every NATO intelligence agency, the Ukraine and the Norks themselves are all conspiring to hide the truth but you managed to find out the truth? They admit to heavy losses, so you are saying they are artificially inflated their own casualty numbers and NATO/UA are conspiring with them to do it?
>>64629253>remains exchangedYes, it is known that Russia refuses to take back at this point hundreds of thousands of thgeir troops remains, so as to not have to admit their deaths. Good job making us aware yet again.
>>64631009Theyre retarded and coping for whatever reason, ignore them. Juche is simply better than them
>>64631009Redpill me, how many people does best Korea say they lost?
The hardest thing about killing norks in kursk was 7n6 just zipped right through those fuckers. You had to magdump those malnourished fucks if you didnt zip their skull or spine. 7.62x54r fired from pkms did far better, it would rip their limbs off. We wanted to capture some alive but those fanatical little fucks would blow themselves up with f1s or try to commit suicide, even by stabbing themselves. I bet if captured their bloodlines would have been severely punished. Id post some shitty sightmark thermal vids but desu you cant really tell whos getting fucked up in those and my hard drive is at home and im away for the holiday
>>64631116Very believable
>>64629081>9 deadBro sucking all that juche nork propaganda dickpull your head out bro
>>64631066Around 5000-6000 total depending on how you count wounded/seriously wounded /killed. One of the confusing things is that their own numbers are HIGHER than most western assessments, often by a significant amount. A theory is they are counting relatively moderate injuries that saw the soldiers return to duty meaning that some may have been wounded a second time thus counted more than one. They absolutely are not hiding it, they spent a week showing every bit off footage they could find of the actual moment of death that they could find on TV. Many of them involved them trying to save guys that they shouldn't have; stuff like three guys getting killed trying to save a guy who was clearly impossible to reach and was almost certainly already dead. >>64631164Once again: This particular unit was on a non combat deployment well behind the front lines.
>>64629620>bro calls himself the "resident north korean expert">can't recognise the unmistakable profile and hairstyle of Hyon Songwol
>>64630532>Robyn HiltonShe's 81 now, but she was a smoke wagon in her younger years. And yes, she did some nude work in her early career.
>>64631203>Hyon Songwol>Not Jon Hye RyonPutrid taste.
>>64631171>Around 5000-6000 total depending on how you count wounded/seriously wounded /killed.Is that something they acknowledge to the Western media, or internally? Because these are not the same thing, particularly with such a hermetic kingdom. They may be truthful to outsiders but have a completely different internal propaganda line.
>>64629236The colombians are individual mercenaries not sent as a unit by colombia.
>>64629286
>>64630887>by threatening withholding benefits if they aren't married by a certain ageThat's a big fucking exaggeration from the original claim, my guy
>>64629769>I bet you're not even whiteI'll bet you're not very smart.
>>64631724>completely different internal propaganda lineThey individually honored each KIA from noon til the evening news on national TV for a week straight then announced a series of monuments for each WIA and KIA, there will be a Wall style monument for not only the fallen but every single person who served. Not only do they internally acknowledge the numbers theirs are higher than most western estimates. As mentioned before they have no problem acknowledging losses or that they are overmatched, they take pride in it. From a internal and international propaganda angle the primary problem is that they might be deliberately exaggerating their casualties.>>64631812The way things work there:>1: Kim mentions they need more Norks, cries on TV about birth rates>2: Local governments start propaganda campaign to promote traditional family values and encourages unmarried women ages 26-35 to start families>3: Threats of 'benefit' reductions; this includes food, housing and the ability to work combined with social and WPK pressure including Sonbun reductions on the woman's family>4: Announcement of increased benefits for women and their families who support the campaign>5: Smart women 'chose' to get husbands while working their plans around their new lives, lots of Marriages of convenience, preferable with a well respected KPA soldier of party member. >6: Commissar marches your new GF to your door. They are somewhere around stage 5, all the guys who went to Ukraine/Russia are drowning in pussy and marriage offers, every one of them got 'benefits' and party membership. Most importantly them and their families just got a huge Sonbun boost as do the families of anyone who marries them. Mandatory GF in all but name.

Not only do they internally acknowledge the numbers theirs are higher than most western estimates.This is from the first two waves of Norks not this this one which is obviously being documented in real time here.This third wave was rear specialist support troops in Kursk AFTER the fighting and does not include the operators of KN series launchers, Koksans, Bulsaes and various other odd Nork weaponry in theater. That is a ongoing thing in a separate category.

>>64631912I've been fleshing out a faction of war-traumatized and autarkic Space Mormons for a pulpy story. Overmatched by massive neighbors, relying on terrain and alliance. Often I've considered North Korea to be an obvious touchstone.Holy Mother of HELL does reading this thread get me supercharged.It's just unreal; the Norks are surreal.Norks are an Astounding Stories baddie. They're a tributary of Ming the Merciless.
>>64629075Forgot something: Specific awards get your survivors and 3 generations increased state benefits as well as permanent life advancement opportunities. These guys got their highest. Imagine if getting a Purple Heart got you, your parents, grandparents, children and grand children $20 a month for life and a Bronze Star got them $50. These guy just got a Medal of Honor which is a multigenerational gold card.Beyond anything else about their system there are very real economic incentives to being a good soldier. >>64631966I'm quite sure that Joseph Smith and Sung would have gotten along quite well. Here is something that most people don't know and should silence any accusations of me working for their government:>According to Kim, his family was always a step away from poverty. Kim said that he was raised by a very active Presbyterian Christian family. His maternal grandfather was a Protestant minister. His father had gone to a missionary school, and he was an elder in the Presbyterian Church.Sungs childhood literacy came from Proto-Nork Presbyterians.
Literal china simping thread made by the chinese lol.Anyway dying for your country is not worth and will never be, now i dare you jew, reward an incel with a virgin girl if he goes to war survives it, see your army tripling in size lol.I will be the first in line, no need to pay me any monthly income or any of that stuff.
>>64630887>They are starting to more or less force single women to find partners by threatening withholding benefits if they aren't married by a certain age.Why is the West copying China’s internet surveillance model instead of this?
>>64632000Good soldiering is really the best they can do, and from more read people I know, they know their shit in that field. Afaik their materiel situation isn't great, but they're pretty solid in terms of infantry tactics and well-trained junior officers to lead with a fatter reserve of them than most countries these days keep, so they can replace the experienced/trained leadership that dies or becomes invalid, something both Ukraine and Russia have been struggling with. Hence the Norks do decently in Ukraine, because they've focused on the thing that both belligerents aren't that good at due to their forces originating from the USSR and its rapid advance mobile/armoured thinking, meanwhile it's pretty much the backbone of the North Korean force iirc since they'd be mobilising millions of footmen in any prospective war against the south and could never really afford all the materiel that modern thinking requires anyways. Give them half decent equipment and they hold their own. Even if I'm totally wrong, it's better to overestimate because when push comes to shove, either you were right and did your homework or you steamroll them that much easier.
>>64632026>China>Jew>Don't fightStop embarrassing yourself, unless you are a AI (in which case i wish more discourse with you) don't try to teach your grandmother how to suck eggs.>>64632039Stupidity and lack of means. The DPRK is so centralized that they can enact major social and economic changes very quickly, they are like Napoleonic France on crack but tiny. The DPRK only has around 26+ million people, they are very small in terms of population and resources but can enact major changes quickly. The DPRK are the international version of a kid with 1000+ years PTSD and nuclear weapons, if i was the current US government i'd seriously consider sending Marilyn Manson to talk to them.>>64632058They really are doing their best, it's probably why they were disgusted by the Chechens and shot them up. Norks don't care about the enemy or themselves but allies or themselves they care alot and are willing to fall over themselves in sacrifice to save them. As human beings the Norks are better than Russians, Russia doesn't deserve a single drop of Choson blood and Russians don't qualify as human in the first place.
>>64632058>they're pretty solid in terms of infantry tactics and well-trained junior officersThe Norks junior officer model is probably one of the best in the world. They go out of their way to mitigate it's weaknesses and it only works for them but it is very good. The weakness is it takes at a minimum 10-12 years to make a decent junior LT.

>>64629058>>64629066>Speaking of his soldier's courage and determination fighting alongside Russia’s forces in Kursk, North Korean leader Kim Jong-un described their valiant efforts as "implessive".
