Religious heads on ladies please!

As we are reading and seeing the REP has gone in to IC, I expect every last ancien and wannabe in the room to get down on his knees pray for the lads in the grass.

Dear Lordy,
May they be given lots of bullets. May they be given lots of targets, may those targets be hit, die and go to hell.
Amen!

Le Diable Marche Avec Nous!!!!!!!!!!!!!

For those in the know, this will not be a stroll in the park, all the spooks are AKed up to high heaven and every fucker and his brother owns an RPG, IC rebels have been fighting for years and some groups are switched on teddy bears. Do not expect Kolwezi!!!!! This one could get nasty as hell.

 

[DanMitsu]

Amen
May God steady their hand
and ease the heart
To shoot straight and true

if we should be thinking of anyone right now it should be the poor boo boos, because they are the ones who are going to need some serious help when the boys get worked up.
GIVE 'EM hell legionnaires !!!

Not a whiff of a mention of FFL deployment in either BBC World, CNN or French TV5 news though: just additional 'French troops' Strange...

Well, I think it's pretty normal. French Foreign Legion troops are "French Army", wheter they kill boo boos or take casualties. The credit is for the French Army. Better for the Legion to keep a low profile, cause if shit gets ugly, it is bad publicity to the Legion within French Government and general public, and if the job gets done, not to good for French Army. So let it be.

The REP has a long tradition of kicking ass in africa, no doubt they'll have a go at it here.
Bonne Chance, REP!

Point taken. The idea might also be to put the thought of tough action before the French public after nine French soldiers and peace-keepers are killed. Needless to say, the locals know which is the important bit.
