  1. The other night I watched "Siege of Jadotville". This was an instance of Irish UN peacekeepers in the Congo in the early 60s. They stood off a force of around 3000 mercenaries and Congolese Katangan rebels or 5 days while equipped with mostly British small arms. Everything from Lee Engield MkIVs to L1A1s including Bren guns. The Irish unit was 125 men all of who survived.

  2.  @72mossy  Well at least the whole mission in the Congo was pretty clear cut case of greed on the part of the mining companies. Glad he got home safe. I firmly believe we need an organization such as the UN. But not necessarily this UN.
