When the Afghan excursion got started, I went out and got a book entitled "Somalia on $5 a Day". Combat pay was $150 a month back then, hence $5 a day. About the peacekeeping efforts by U.S. units out in the countryside, away from Mogadishu. Worth finding and reading, if only to understand the mentality of the people we are dealing with in these Third World hellholes.
Thanks, I just may buy the book, although I think I have a fairly good idea about the mentality of these barbarians "that" (not who) inhabit the Third World Hell-holes of their own making.
