The Incredible Story Behind the French Foreign Legion's Nazi Battalion in Indochina. Back in print after almost 20 years, this book is to the printed word what Gillo Pontecorvo's "The battle of Algiers" is to film. Pontecorvo's film, which has been shown at The Pentagon, is used as a tool to provoke discussion as to: "how far is too far". "The Devil's Guard" does not debate the issue of how much force should be used by democracies when confronted by foes they consider barbarous and cruel, rather it is a catalogue of the tactics used once the decision has been made to win at all costs. A must read and a valuable addition to the never ending debate of what is acceptable when countries go to war.
