Served with the British Force Aug - Nov 83. Thanks for your tribute. It seems a long time ago now but is seldom from my thoughts. God bless all who served and the good people of Lebanon.

[PhoenicanSailor]

@bobforfish Thank you and the British Forces. Whenever it comes to to the Multinational force in Lebanon people think of the Americans, French and Italians but I tend to remind them that British peace keepers risked their lived their as well. Thank You

[57Rommel]

Thanks for this video...4 months in Beirut ...Italian Army...Parà...

Folgore was my battalion.

[PhoenicanSailor]

@57Rommel No problem, as a Lebanese I felt the need to show our support to the very soldiers who came and tried to bring peace. At least you know there are many who remember you. They all speak about the Americans and French but I remind them there where British and also Italians..

I was a Corporal with the 2nd Radio Battalion while assigned to the 24th MAU in 1983. I was at the southern end of the airport when I got the opportunity to go to Egypt on an R&R trip and left aboard ship a day or two before the bombing. Needless to say, we turned around and came back ashore on maybe Monday or Tuesday. I spent the next week digging out bodies from the BLT building.

[FrLawRE]

Thanks for this vid PhonencianSailor. Brings back old memories. I was there from December 1982 until May 1983 with the French Marines. Our unit met guys from the USMC several times and I was able to put to good use my fluent English. I was on one occasion the translator during a presentation to the US forces of the French military equipment used in Beirut. I still think of the sincere comradeship felt by all of the men from the Multinational Force, whatever the country.

God bless all of you.
