US South Korea war games called warning to North Korea | Fox News

The one-day drills, involving 2,000 troops from both countries, are intended to send a clear warning against North Korea aggression by showing U.S. and South Korean combat readiness, South Korea's Defense Ministry said in a statement. Officials have described these as the biggest ever joint drills. They coincide with several days of joint naval exercises involving a nuclear-powered U.S. supercarrier and separate U.S., South Korean and Japanese naval rescue drills.

A U.S. military spokeswoman, Jennifer Buschick, wouldn't comment on the flag, deferring to the South Korean military. A South Korean defense official, who declined to be named because of office policy, said the flag was meant to mark enemy territory during the drills, but he wouldn't comment on Pyongyang's possible reaction to use of the North Korean flag in the drills.

North Korea's state media have condemned the ongoing drills as a precursor to an invasion, with the Korean Central News Agency warning that even a small clash could lead to a "full-scale regional nuclear war."

On Friday, the North's National Peace committee of Korea said in a statement that the drills are "reckless" and push the Korean Peninsula and the region "to the brink of a war."

Uh, no. They have to drill and train constantly to keep themselves sharp.

Not only the last thing you want is your soldiers to be unprepared, but also bored and with no morale because their days are filled with nothing.
