U.S. officials say an American soldier who fled across the heavily armed border from South Korea into North Korea had served nearly two months in prison and was released.

He was charged with assault and held in a South Korean prison. To get away from discipline in the USA, he ran across the border into North Korea.

    You’d be surprised what peons in the military actually know. and what he knows is probably more than what they know. (or at least, more confirmation of what they know.)

    not saying it wasn’t a dumb move on his part. or that he really knows much. He might, but he probably thinks he knows more than he does.

      Yup. The recent discord release of top secret documents showed everyone how lax security really is.
