US Special Ops commander: We’ve sent troops into North Korea

From Daily Caller.com (May 28):

U.S. Army Gen. Neil Tolley, commander of U.S. Special Operations Forces in South Korea, told an audience in Tampa that U.S. and South Korean forces have been sent into North Korea to spy on the communist country’s vast collection of underground tunnels and military installations.

The extraordinary admission, which went unreported by U.S. media, came on May 22 during the Special Operations Forces Industry Conference. Tolley said his command has identified 20 airfields and 180 munitions factories that are partially underground, along with thousands of subterranean artillery positions.

North Korea, he said, has dug tunnels underneath the Demilitarized Zone separating it from the South. “There were four tunnels under the DMZ,” Tolley observed, according to a Tampa Tribune blogger. “Those are the ones we know about.” [read more]

Tunnels under the DMZ, huh? Either the N. Koreans are trying to escape their country (which I don’t blame them) or the new leader of N. Korea is up to no good.  Those special ops guys really earn their pay.
