And you're confusing soldiers/warriors with peace keepers because..............
"The U.S. Marine participation over the years in UNTSO has been significant. UNTSO's first Chief-of-Staff was Lieutenant General Riley, USMC.
" The Marine Corps has always had at least one Military Observer assigned to UNTSO since its conception. Today, five majors and one captain report each summer for assignment."
"Since 1948 over 257 soldiers have been killed manning the blue line between Israel and Lebanon, one of which was US Marine Corps Lieutenant Colonel W. Higgins who was kidnapped, held captive for a year and murdered by the Iranian-backed Hizballah group while serving with UNTSO."
However, do not take my word for it, please feel free to make your case at any Marine Club or hostelry in the vicinity of a USMC base.
