“THE WORLD OF THE ‘MERC’ 

It is a world where you risk your LIFE to defend a flag that is not your, giving and following orders in a language you may not fully understand.

It is a world Where the pay may be higt, but you are not likely to live to enjoy it.

It is a world that only a special few enter in any age… John Paul Jones commanding a Russia fleet in the eighteenth century… William Walker gambling for a Central American Empire in the nineteenth century…the idealists who died before Madrid in the Spanish Civil War… and the Americans of our own Day, leaving their native shore for Israel, Africa, South America, Asia, everywhere that a cause cries out to be defended or the siren song of adventure sounds abobe the din of battle…“
