South Korean Navy’s rescue in South Korea is the sound of a praise. This is the first time ever in Korea, piracy and hostage situation with the implementation of rescue plans, but no major casualties.

Just two weeks ago, South Korea, “Chosun Ilbo,” also published an editorial calling for special forces guard the size of the Korean Peninsula a serious imbalance. Within just two weeks, South Korean media tone reversal, has moved from concerns about special forces combat power to boast the world’s top strength.

hell trained “soldiers in the military”

Korean army special forces are divided into land, sea, air and Marine Corps special Force 4 parts, collectively known as the KSF, the total strength of nearly 30,000.

Army special forces known as “special operations division,” the total strength of 10,000 people, accounting for all Special Forces Jun Han half of the overall control of the Army Special Operations Command, whose basic task is deep behind enemy lines at the parachute through the surveillance and special operations to support the regular army have been fighting side.

In addition, the South Korean participation in the international peacekeeping force officers and soldiers, are mainly determined by the force of selection. The force of officers and men are wearing a black beret, it is often known as “black beret troops.”

South Korean Army a total of eight military, in peacetime, “black beret forces” in the attachment to the military camp as a unit (each at least one military camp). “Black beret forces” under the jurisdiction of seven travel agents, travel under the jurisdiction of groups, corporations under the jurisdiction of the search business, teams and other units, formed a larger scale.

“black beret forces,” the main training courses for a variety of operations and parachute training in light weapons, in addition, also need to Tae Kwon Do black belt level. Special Operations Command in accordance with the provisions of, if not in combat missions, the troops must be full-day tour 4 to 5 hours.

“black beret forces” in the elite, it is known as “special forces special forces” of the 707 Brigade.

force directly under the jurisdiction of Special Operations Command, the main counter-terrorism operations, protection of dignitaries, “disciplinary retaliation” and other special operations missions, as well as North Korean special forces as the opponent called “X Files” mission of .

force formed after the Munich Olympics in 1972, the Department learned was “Black May” lessons arising from terrorist attacks, is from the “black beret forces” made in the preferred, all officers and non-commissioned officers, the lowest rank of corporal, under the jurisdiction of six companies, about 300 people, including four with a training mission, only two even perform special operations task line. Even under the jurisdiction of each of four combat teams, each group of 14 people, is also made secure and destroy women’s groups and a special operations group.

707 Battalion of the selection is very harsh, applicants must be “black beret forces” active duty military officers, noncommissioned officers, innocent life experience with outstanding performance, applicants will receive a long review. Those who pass will receive a 10-day assessment screening, six months after basic infantry training and six months of special combat parachute training, one year more than the selection, training, attrition rate as high as 90%.

special training courses to include mental training, such as to target the head unit commanding officers, the shooting team, and the famous “Rolling Boli Cha” “swallow excrement” and so on. The special forces troops and equipment for the highest, Korean K-7 silencer submachine gun, MP-5 submachine guns and portable surface to air missiles and other series, the first by the military equipment.

Since the establishment of origin, 707 Brigade was performing a large number of special security mission games, the 1986 Seoul Asian Games and 1988 Seoul Olympics, by the force in carrying the most difficult stadium security tasks.

compilation of naval special operations forces into a brigade, known as the Naval Special Warfare Brigade (UDT/SEAL), is Korea’s oldest special forces, the Somali pirates seized a hostage rescue, is is a force of soldiers.

1955 In November, South Korea sent 32 special forces, underwater demolition teams to participate in the United States for special training, these special forces are assigned to Underwater Demolition Team (UDT), which is formed into the first Han Jun special operations forces, naval special warfare brigade known as the “Han Jun, the mother of special forces.”

naval special warfare brigade trained by the United States the impact of underwater demolition teams, to emphasize the limits of endurance training is known, the selection and training is divided into four stages, beginning with “Devil 14″, 14-week , mainly through high-intensity strength training, players hone their fitness. As the penetration of maritime forces to perform tasks, so this stage team members must be “separated from the boat itself,” time and boats for company. Boats weighing 85 kg, together with other equipment, man-load over 200 kg, the training intensity can be imagined, it will only shut out half the applicants.

clearance will be faced with the famous “Hell Week”, the main train members of the courage, endurance and mental qualities, and many incredible projects, such as to allow players wore rubber boats in the sewer and septic tank entrance swimming, with a pistol opened fire to his teammates dressed in body armor, patrol the middle of the night alone in the crematorium, etc., the purpose is “to enable players to get rid of most people’s sense of shame and self-esteem, develop team members in any case be able to live with spiritual power.” .

third phase of training code-named “survived”, commonly known as outdoor survival training, team members will be thrown on a desert island, completely within a week, looking for food on their own ability to survive.

fourth stage code-named “reborn”, the Department for 8 days 9 nights, travel 400 km and high-intensity guerrilla training camp, players must be armed, high-speed moving subjects completed a variety of combat, and to endure snow, mountains and other harsh conditions.

as harsh training and strict selection, the South Korean navy special forces to man combat ability has always been known. Special forces in the Han Jun, the Navy’s highest education level, all players have a college diploma.

Air Force special forces known as the “combat control group” (CCT), is a smaller number, because wearing red berets, commonly known as “Red Hat forces.” The force’s main mission is to wartime airborne, parachute and airdrop to provide guidance and instructions, they must be group or one-man operation, and before a large airborne force in the combat zone, performing the most dangerous task, so the training, selection of the highest degree of difficulty for the special forces. Applicants for a period of one year in addition to the selection of training, but also were in the 707 Brigade, the Navy and Marine Corps special operations brigade of special forces training for one year, in order to have qualified CCT task qualification, so “Red Hat” who was as the “soldiers in the soldiers.”

Korea special forces training, selection, worldwide reputation, the extent of its harsh, and even the United States, “Delta Force” is also humbled.

If variable

South Korean military said, South Korea special forces there are still many shortcomings.

Although the research capacity of South Korea’s industrial base and has been great progress, many weapons can be self-sufficient, but the special forces of the equipment still has defects, such as special operations forces of each branch are emphasized airborne, parachute capability, but transport special operations forces is not compiled in the sequence, the number is far less than the helicopter.

In addition to the 707 brigade and the “Red Hat forces” and “top priority”, and many special warfare special operations forces special weapons archaic, such as the largest number of “black beret forces” is still widely used US-made M3A1 silenced submachine gun, born out of this gun called “grease gun” cheap weapons – M3 “Gade” submachine gun, as early as December 12, 1942 has been mass troops, World War II, China’s liberation war and the Korean War in the common weapons, can be considered a true “grandfather gun” was.

big victory on the rescue, cheers, there have been asked to reflect sound. South Korea’s English-language newspaper “Korea Times” published an editorial, it is time to restore calm, but also seriously examine the issue, look at the aftermath of the rescue operation to bring the time.

more minutes from the 5:00 start of the rescue, is more than 4 hours before and after the fact, the middle can have a lot of variables, including the kidnappers have no chance to kill the hostages if the tragedy, that this Victory rescue may become a history of failure to rescue.

Yin Ping Island incident last year, South Korean Navy in particular taeyonpyong Marines was thoroughly discredited, in this sense, this is a restore the reputation of action.

1 23, a self-proclaimed pirate named Muhammad gathered from Somali pirates to Garad told Reuters by telephone reporters: “We never intended to kill, but now we want revenge We no longer ship for ransom by South Korea, we will burn boat, kill the hostages. “

stage to rescue the hostages kidnapped by Somali pirates, there are two basic approaches: one is negotiated, even to pay the ransom; another rescue operation is similar to the Korean force storm. Gulf of Aden waters are too broad, multi-national naval force patrol with less. In fact, now cruising in the Gulf of Aden in the South Korean naval vessels only, “Cui Ying-ship,” one, expect this one to all South Korean naval vessels escorted to expect this group of Navy special forces to deter Somali pirates all, basic is not possible tasks.

“piracy against ships as the only and ultimate goal is to ransom, so generally do not start with the hostages based on this characteristic, the European Union naval threat that the safety of the hostages by force, the cost of implementation action ‘is not worth while’. “EU navy spokesman Okun Kennedy said. ★
