    Default Special forces parachuted into North Korea on a recon mission.

    Looks like they made a few discoveries.

    This mission is a example of why there will always be a need for airborne operations.

    I really hope we are just fucking with the North Koreans. Pushing the new guy to see what he'll do. Otherwise, this is beyond retarded.

    WHOA! This is SUPER beyond retarded . Poke the bear with a stick but they never seem to realize that if it goes down Seoul is gone. Missiles are one thing but artillery ain't gonna get shot down. Jeez, at least wait for me to get some my stuff out of here before you tell the bozos we're skipping around their yard.

    DATELINE June 5, 1944, London

    General Alfred E. Scheisskopf, CDBI (Cheif, Department of Bright Ideas) regretfully announced that the invasion of France, originally planned for today has had to be postponed due to inclement weather; however, he assured reporters during an unofficial briefing he was sure the weather would clear tomorrow and there was plenty of time to take advantage of the moon and the tides in the Normandy area which make the June 5 and June 6 block the only time the combined airborne and seaborne invasion along the fifty-mile stretch of French Coast along the Cotentin Penninsula could succeed for the next month or so.


    "Don't worry," Scheisskopf said with confidence. "All the troops are on their ships ready to go, the paratroopers are standing by their aircraft waiting to load up. Sure, it's frustrating, getting emotionally set to go and having it delayed, but if we can get a brief window of clear weather tomorrow we still have time to get the paratroopers in the air and on their DZs (Drop Zones) around St. Mere Eglise and along the Merderet River in the early morning hours of June 6 to block German reinforcements from getting to our landing beaches between Caen and Cherbourg.

    General Scheisskopf went on to explain that he was confident the Germans had no idea the Allied forces are coming at Normandy because of the elaborate hoax Allied Intelligence has pulled off opposite the Pas de Calais with a phony army supposedly under the command of LTG George S. Patton, "Jerry thinks he's leading the invasion, but we're saving him to command a new army to be activated after we break out of the beach head." From a Top Secret device known only as "Ultra" Allied High Command knows the Germans are also convinced the weather will continue to be nasty so won't expect the attack now.

    White House sources deny this announcement has anything to do with the upcoming November Presidential Election...

    All these loud mouths put the troops in jeopardy. Outrageous.

    DPRK ops? Wishful thinking. And in the “I know that you believe you understand what you think I said, but I'm not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant” category of reporting...

    Context of the Korea Special Forces Story

    And so it goes...

    The reporter sounds like he's sticking by his story. It wouldn't be the first time someone spoke out of turn. I would be surprised and disappointed if we hadn't been over there to look for ourselves, we just need better OPSEC. I suppose the truth will come out eventually; someone will write a book. Now, what is REALLY going on in Area 51?

    Occam's Razor. The general did not know press was in the room.
