    I wonder if the language barrier will be an issue for these troops. Not sure how many norks speak Russian, but I’d imagine not many in the military would.

      The hardest part is keeping track of all their booster seats. They have some very short people

            Not in this case. Since the military is the only entity that could take kim down. Plus they were starving while developing as children, so even if the military was fed well, they’d still be pocket humans.

      My guess is they will be compartmentalized to their own unit(s), with dual speakers coordinating with Russian units/leadership. Though, like you say, there probably aren’t very many of those, so these units will be particularly at risk if their rare dual speaker gets taken out. They could probably mitigate this a bit by having dual speakers in safer locations one tier up the command chain.

      This all assumes they will be in front-line roles. It is possible they will get assigned to safer duties, freeing up Russian soldiers to go to the front.
