Picture of the Day: ROK Military Reserve Forces Restart Annual Training
Members of the reserve forces engage in a fighting drill at a boot camp in the southeastern city of Daegu on June 2, 2022, as an annual field training program for the country’s reserve forces resumed after being suspended for the two previous years due to the COVID-19 pandemic. South Korea’s reserve forces are made up of people who completed the mandatory military service of about two years over the past eight years. (Yonhap)
Looks like they are playing paint ball…not really intensive combat training.
Nope. They are doing CQB training.
The ROKA fearing an incident and not wanting to deal with headaches that will come with such an incident won’t issue real guns with blanks to the reservists.
That and they probably don’t want to spend money on the MILES gear for the reservists.
So instead they issue them with paint guns, because for one little chance of serious injury and if a reservist is hit, he is painted for all to see.
Pretty sad you can’t trust your troops with weapons.
To the untrained eye, it does look like they are playing paintball…
…but in reality…
…the enemy will be…
…MARKED FOR DEATH!
