Help me out here /lit/. Pic related is an excerpt of a mercenary during the Congo war that someone's been posting, but the only information I can find is that the OP claims it's from a book called Someone Else's War (2001) by Anthony Rogers, itself an excerpt from Soldier of Fortune magazine, but the book itself isn't freely available in the usual places and I can't find it in SOF magazine.

Obviously one of the mercenaries in the Congo, but I can't find a source. Some anon posted this a couple weeks ago, and I've checked that it's not Congo Mercenary or Mad Dog Killers, and I have no clue where to go next.

What the fuck went wrong? Was public education just that much better in the mid-century? Does being a fascist just impart a baseline level of literary talent?
