Foreign legion sniper Kolwezi....

[Chris Boonzaier]

I picked upa a 2 REP beret from an ex Legion Colonel. The Beret has a name in it... so I set out to try and find out about the wearer.... Although not his beret at the time, it turns out he was a Sharp Shooter at Kolwezi... An ex legionnaire helped me find some pics with him, on the right in both photos.... I am a happy boy... ?
