I love "amecaine" soldiers but my wife does'nt!
Mainly because in french it means american women soldiers.

I must say that my first impression of US soldiers, in Kosovo 2000, was not that good. But with time, I learned to appreciate US soldiers.

That said, what I found really interresting among many things in SWJ is the opportunity to exchange and debate with another war culture, mainly the US one. Once you've gone further than the liberty fries issue, I is interresting to see how we look at the same things in a completely different manner.
Mainly based on theory and practical approach of complex stabilization issues discussions on my part.
