I watched Forces Speciales on SBS 2 late last night. I'd never heard of it before but it was damn good. A different role for Diane Kruger but she pulled it off well.

this was great, Netflix has a follow up on the soldiers in this film. I think it's called Keringal or something like that, it's pretty good too.

I went to the Korengal Outpost in 2007. Pretty crappy place to be.
