Very cool read. O0
Mercenaries never left Africa.
Sandline was involved in Sierra Leone
Executive Outcomes was all over the continent for 15 years
Simon Mann's planeload of mercenaries headed to stage a coup in Equatorial Guinea were arrested in Zimbabwe (ah, irony)
There were numerous "private security" firms on the Rwanda / Congo border during the unrest there to protect local farms / mines, especially with the uselessness of the UN peacekeepers there
Mercenaries have been quietly used to free multiple crews seized by Somali pirates
Aegis has been active in Somalia and Libya
Lots of former Rhodies are active in West Africa working security for oil companies (mostly as advisors)
I'm sure there's more; this is just off the top of my head
What about the Expendables?

That's what I came in here to post. :(
Sorry Charlie.
I ain't no tuna.
But you like tuna, right?
Who here on GH DOESN'T like tuna?
Though LB may take that as a different connotation because, you know, Aquaman.
I was thinking strictly in terms of you being a cat. Cats love tuna, don't they?
My sources say 'yes.'
