Civil: Life after the Foreign Legion

By Joel Adam Struthers

CIVIL: Life after the Foreign Legion, is the author's follow up to Appel: A Canadian in the French Foreign Legion. During his recent return to France he shares with you his past in Iraq, Afghanistan and Algeria as a security contractor and more.

"The authors honest depictions of the chaotic blend of high-octane danger, exposed tensions and constant improvisation that characterised the period of reconstruction in war torn Iraq, immediately paint the picture...

Those years of deployment to Iraq and Afghanistan seem a world away now but life was lived in a different 'lane' then, where death and destruction stalked your every hour. Joel brings this time into sharp focus, he cuts through the embellished, the fabricated and self-aggrandisement of so many accounts and captures the complex reality that existed."
