Turned into quite the scandal for France. They were actually winning the war with former SS at the spearhead since those guys killed without compunction. The outcry about the Foreign Legion harboring war criminals forced the French to boot them all out. Do we actually need to say from that point they never won another battle?
Does make me wonder what would happen if we actually let the US Marines loose on ISIS....

I remember reading an SS officer’s story about the fight in Vietnam.”We spoke to them in the only language they understood,MG42.”

Want to get rid of ISIS? You don’t need Marines, the USAF can vaporize them. Declare total war against ISIS and let them feel the real burn. When the ground troops arrive, they can pick up the pieces.
