@BearJFK Easy, everything is obsolete, most weapons and vehicles predate the 80s, soldiers are paid barely minimum wages, and their training is virtually non existent, making transition to the private sector almost impossible and forcing them to stay and accept it.

Could be one of them
@Ben_Scallan I had the honour to meet the Irish battalion in Lebanon when I served myself in the French battalion of the UN.

@nb4ld Moi j'ai récemment eu droit au démarchage via LinkedIn, après avoir récupéré mes coordonnées dans un compte-rendu d'assemblée générale de syndic de copropriété. 🤡
@j2k3k@br4s1d4s I've heard stories of our own AF being looted by Army grunts at night because they had nicer toys on deployments.
I'll deny any personal implications on such raids 👀
