    Cry, 'Havoc!', and let slip the dogs of war.

    Re: Simon Murray's Legionnaire

    Ok, the review was a bit teary:

    However, Simon's book was a very good account of the legion in the early 60's in Algeria, and I just happen to take any insult, or what I will decide is even half way insulting in that direction, very personally. I don't know if you have ever been to war with the legion, but I have.

    These kind of experienses tend to influence your thinking, believe me.

    And I'm not even an Aussie. Try to see if you can come up with some Swedish jokes instead, at least they would be more funny to a Norwegian.

    Re: Simon Murray's Legionnaire

    probably the best legion book ever written. when I read it knew I had to be a legionnaire (12 years ago almost... damn time flies).

    Re: Simon Murray's Legionnaire

    My turn to apologise,
    No point in taking these things too seriously
    A good place to get a few points through though
    Actually. my legion time was more in the 1950's and things had slowed down a lot by the time the 60's rolled along (Murray's legion)
