Following the myths and legends about Nazis recruited by the French
Foreign Legion to fight in Indochina, Eric Meyer's new book is
based on the real story of one such former Waffen-Ss man who lived
to tell the tale. The Legion recruited widely from soldiers left
unemployed and homeless by the defeat of Germany in 1945. They
offered a new identity and passport to men who could bring their
fighting abilities to the jungles and rice paddies of what was to
become vietnam. These were ruthless, trained killers, brutalised by
the war on the Eastern Front, their killing skills honed to a
razor's edge. They found their true home in Indochina, where they
fought and became a byword for brutal military efficiency.
