Re: CIA Discloses Korean Spy Records

[<LACarr@aol.com>]

I have just read this thing about the spies going into NK. I can,t agree with 
the articles assessment of the good that the people did during that time 
frame.

The North apparently knew of the number of agents being sent in so How many 
troops were tied up in the operations trying to shut a few people down. I 
would hate to think of all those units being released to line units. The UN 
would probably have a higher death toll. It seems that the people that went 
into that situation had there eyes open and knew the risk involved, I believe 
that more than a few people were able to come back home because an enemy 
soldier was tied up trying to pin down a small unit that dropped in on their 
little party in the North.

The people that were lost and their families should have received some 
compensation. I would imagine the United Nation people just said Oh well, get 
me another man. It seems that is the way most of the cases were not handled 
as promised.

I believe all of the things that went on was a training process because this 
kind of war was knew to the Armies, so a lot should have been learned. Over 
dead bodies but it still had to be learned to make any progress in the future.
