An interview with an assortment of European mercenaries fighting during the conflict which wracked the Congo in the 1960s.
Kindu became notorious for a massacre (The "Kindu Massacre" or "Kindu Atrocity"), which took place on either November 11 or 12 1961 in Kindu Port-Émpain. Thirteen Italian airmen, members of the United Nations Operation in the Congo (ONUC), were murdered.

European? South Africans
I'm not sure but the first one interviewed sounded like he could be from South Africa.
Many were European ww2 veterans or those who suffered at the hands of soviet regimes.
Irish man led it
@@schizoidboyDefinitely a South African...
Afrikaans is more than likely his first language hence the accented English...
Most of us are fluent in two/three languages or more...

Even a Cuban contingent led by Che Guevara fought there.
