In my opinion these soldiers footwear is substandard for these weather conditions

Thousands of new recruits received training on a snowy plateau in Northwest China's Gansu Province.

They are wearing sneakers!! If it is really -23 °C ?

You can walk around in good sneakers and thick wool socks under such circumstances (in a city) but you are not going to perform real field training with them especially not for days. The first ditch fills your shoes with snow additionally they have no good grip...having wet feet at -23 °C is a no go.

One of the very rare times I've seen PLAN doing RASing but the slack in those fuel lines doesn't fill me with confidence that they are actually conducting a fuelling although it could also just be a practice UNREP

 

[bdpopeye]

I knew you'd make that post. ..This is the first time I've ever seen the PLAN actually pumping fuel during an RAS. And I've NEVER seen an RAS or VERTREP with her carriers. Never.

Why did they even waste time unloading supplies with their military images, by the type it arrives to the victims of the disaster it would have been repacked with images of the next election candidates.

I don't know. That's just how they roll. They like to do busy work in front of the media.

Just contact the Chinese Ministry of Defence if you want to know more..this is their legitimate email address...;

I love the bit about "strengthening dialogue on maritime law" too, while they ram their nine dash line down PI's throat ?
