20. They are in a volatile market
Edited on Mon Apr-19-04 12:49 PM by bobthedrummer
after all and their benefits include huge insurance policies.
But the for profit nature of mercenaries until recently was seen in US military hospitals where our wounded GI's were CHARGED FOR THEIR MEALS by these MERCENARIES. Fortunately, as outlined in this Stars and Stripes article, that foul policy is gone, and GI's that had paid these MERCENARIES will be reimbursed.

Mercenaries are ultimately harmful to our troops, they are scummy parasites of war.:grr:They do not swear an oath to defend the US Constitution, just to make the big bucks, and they CHOSE to do this, fuck them, they are state sponsored terrorists, aren't they?

Wounded GI's get free hospital meals
