JENKINS ‘REGRETS’ DEFECTING, LIVING IN NORTH KOREA FOR 40 YEARS

From a short article in todays Washington Post:

Army deserter Charles Jenkins said Monday that he regrets leaving his post for North Korea, where he spent nearly 40 years, and called the communist country’s leader, Kim Jong Il, “an evil man.”

CNN also had an article with more background. I have no doubt that he is telling the truth, but he did desert during wartime; he did not get worse than he deserved. Hopefully Seoul won’t regret his brazen disrespect of Kim Jong-il.
