Anglo-Belgian Mercenary 1925

Years after the 1st World War. The Belgian Colonial Empire needed more manpower to maintain its forces in the Belgian Congo. Yet! With its army depleted after the consequences of WWI, the king and its generals look towards a cheaper and efficient way to recruit more troops by hiring mercenaries. These mercenaries are composed of WWI veterans, former military personnel from colonial Africa, and by honorable and dishonorable discharge troopers that needed to find a job and a place to stay. One of them you see are one of the Mercenary soldiers that serves in the army. Selected or those who joined by their own will are from the British Empire, United States, Canada, and Australia who are the only English speaking few who enlists. Now there are other soldiers like Germans, Dutch-Afrikaans, French and French-Creole who also joined the ranks together with some natives. But in the end, as it turns out even worse for these WWI veterans who wanted a job, but have no other choice to stay as finding work in their native countries prove to be difficult.
