French Intervention

Close up showing (poorly) the French cammo scheme.





The French president Francois Mitterand today expressed concern at the humanitarian situation in parts of Britain. Speaking at a special session of European leaders Mr Mitterand encouraged other states to intervene and seperate the warring groups.

    Nice!

    Wait... the French were wearing camo and kevlar in '79? I thought they wore olive green, steel pots, and pretty light kit through most of the '70s and '80s...? (These look more like they're ready to intervene in the Balkans in the early '90s).
