#1 Thank you.

Now you think this will get as much coverage in the MSM as the Spanish pull out? Huh?

#5 Domo arigato. I imagine the troops are making known their pleasure at being so far from the parade ground... And the more practical experience they are seen enjoying by China, the better, in terms of medium term relations between the two countries. After all, how much real life experience have the Chinese troops -- even the new Special Forces type units -- had lately?
