Internal shooting is a political game in which people fight for power without distinguishing between peers.

It belongs to the lowest axis of political action.

However, it seems to have spread to the military, which should be the most non-political.

After the loss of communication with Choi Young-soo for three hours, a phenomenon reminiscent of internal firearms in the military occurred.



Yesterday (2nd), the Joint Chiefs of Staff announced at a regular briefing for the Ministry of National Defense, "At the time of the (disruption of communication with Choi Young-Ham), the naval forces (Navy Operations Command) did not report the situation and command to the Joint Chiefs of Staff."

It sounds like the Navy never reported to the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

To be precise, I did not report the situation and command, but did report to the staff.

The announcement of the Joint Chiefs of Staff only emphasized what the Navy did not do (situation report and command report), and left out what it did (the staff report).



The Chief of Operations of the Joint Chiefs of Staff recognized the loss of communication after receiving a report from the Navy's staff, but the shallow number of the Joint Chiefs of Staff trying to avoid the embarrassment of not notifying the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff is read.

The cowardice of leaving the responsibility to the navy and falling behind alone is also visible.

Not a soldier.

It seems that the large adult JCS, who oversees the operations and training of each military, did something ugliness.



The Navy reported to the Joint Chiefs of Staff, but...

The Joint Chiefs of Staff is famous for sparing words during regular Pentagon briefings.

Yesterday was different.

To the reporter's question about the progress of the controversy over the loss of communication with Choi Young-ham, he would have responded briefly, "The investigation is ongoing, so please wait for the results."


“At the time of the situation, the naval officer did not report the situation and command to the Joint Chiefs of Staff. The situation was recognized as a case of discipline that occurred while the ship was sailing away from the typhoon, and the Naval Operations Commander on the day the situation occurred commanded and reported to the Chief of Naval Staff. I know. The pirates are checking the overall situation and reporting system for the relevant units from the day the situation occurred in the wartime readiness inspection room, and we will take strict measures according to the results."


It is true that the Navy did not report the situation and command to the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

Instead, I made a staff report.

The naval operations commander informed the chief of the Joint Chiefs of Operations of the war.

However, at yesterday's briefing, the Joint Chiefs of Staff did not disclose the facts of the staff report, only highlighting the absence of a situation report and a command report.



The intention was to instill the perception that "there was no naval Joint Chiefs of Staff report."

"The command wants to make it clear that the Navy's report was not normal," said an officer of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

I don't know if the Joint Chiefs of Staff will feel at ease even if they say they haven't heard what they've heard.


Enlarging an image

The damn thing that can't be an umbrella...

The reporter protested to a JCS official at a briefing yesterday, saying, "If you say something like that, you will be misunderstood that the Navy did not report to the JCS at all."

The official said, "I only said that there was no situation report or command report."

When he responded, "Didn't you report to the staff?" he said, "How did you know that?"



Not surprisingly, articles poured in, saying, "The Navy did not even report it to the Joint Chiefs of Staff."

Thanks to this, the Joint Chiefs of Staff breathed a sigh of relief, and the Navy became insignificant.

The Chief of the Joint Chiefs of Staff was aware of the report from the Chief of Naval Operations, but the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff was not aware of it.

The Navy has been branded as a scoundrel who did not see it.

The Joint Chiefs of Staff would have anticipated such a scenario.



Choi Young-ham's loss of communication is an obvious mistake by Choi Young-ham.

When he enters a shaded area with poor communication, he has no excuses for not doing the right thing.

It is not a case of a hole in security.

It shouldn't happen, but it can happen.

It is enough to take a lesson so that the loss of communication in the shaded area during wartime and peace does not occur again by carefully capturing it.

Even if the opposition raised their voices as “a serious security vacuum” and “a matter to be commended for,” it was an issue that the Joint Chiefs of Staff could calmly respond to and make a soft landing.



The Joint Chiefs of Staff were ruthless.

Even if you can't block the rain with an umbrella open, it's like pushing the drenched military under the umbrella with the top of the umbrella.

Kim Seung-gyeom, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, showed tough leadership within a month of his inauguration.

It is questionable whether the Army, Navy, Air Force, and Marines will faithfully follow the orders of the Joint Chiefs of Staff who are sincere in their cleverness and self-reliance.

Army, you can't do it like this.
