The Mercenary: Private Security Contractors in Iraq and Afghanistan 1/2 (2006)

In the late 20th Century the distinction between soldier and mercenary became blurred. The recent use of "Private Security Contractors" (PSC) in Iraq has been more extensive than at any time in modern history. The brutal killing of four PSC employees in Fallujah in April 2004 made it clear that these "contractors" are not merely workers in a foreign land. But are the lives of such men the only thing at risk when we privatize warfare?
"Shadow Company" explores the moral and ethical issues private military solutions create for PSC employees, for the Western governments who foot the bill for their salaries, and for everyday citizens like you. The filmmakers traveled the globe to expose all sides of the issue, interviewing PSC staff, owners and lobbyists, former mercenaries, academics, journalists and top authors.

@LOST11B I suggest maybe you should know your facts & history, 'contractors' (ie Xe, Aegis et al) are modern mercenary companies, the days of 'Wild Geese' are all but over, nowadays it's all 'corporate legitimacy' & global contracts, but their no less mercenary forces.
