U.S. forces in the Korean Peninsula are ramping up troop readiness in response to North Korea’s recent increase of missile launches since the beginning of the new year.
“Following the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea recent increase of missile launch frequency in 2022 and U.S. Indo-Pacific Command’s enhanced ballistic missile defense directive, the 35th Air Defense Artillery Brigade stationed in the Republic of Korea - increased the intensity of their certification exercise recently to demonstrate USFK’s capabilities and commitment to defend the ROK against any threat or adversary,” a press release from U.S. Forces Korea read Tuesday.

SFC Joe S. Davis Jr., MSM, DSL, Kim Jong Un is a wild card in my view... A person with a totalitarian approach to running his Country...with his citizens as, essentially his slaves... There is no telling when He might just push the button on a series of armed missiles at one of our allies or even the United States... He does take much of his direction from China, from everything I have seen or read, which tells me that we need to take North Korea as a formal adversary that is one who may trigger a nuclear holocaust... Just saying...
