Ah, mercenaries have been around for thousands of years. They're now just getting around to mass-marketing their services.

If these PMC's take off in the United States (for corporate use etc.) I wonder if the lefties will classify them as a militia and scream about their use?

tard, I don't understand your point...

More important, what was VC looking for when he stumbled upon this?

I'm trying to think...

What was I looking for?

I'm still reading about them, and I find them fascinating. Basically mercenaries with a C-corp for legal protection and validation.

One source said America is using them extensively right now.

I remember! I remember!

I was here first:
