摘要

Mercenaries have been vital players in warfare throughout history. Until the growth of modern nations with standing forces and conscription they were an essential component of any conflict. The United States has employed mercenaries in its own short history. For example, one such mercenary, a German, hired by the Union Army during the Civil War was awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor. Prior to the United States entering War II, American mercenaries joined the ranks of the Canadian Air Force and yet another group of pilots voluntarily formed a group in China known as the Flying Tigers What purpose could a mercenary force serve today in conflict, operations other than war, peace and sanctions enforcement. What impact could the presence of a private military consultant have on a joint task force operation. Is there a place in the diplomatic toolbox for the private military consultant as a tool of foreign policy. Mercenaries of the 21st century already little resemble the warriors hired by the ancient Romans in technology and weaponry. The image may remain unchanged, but today the opportunity exists for highly trained military members to join a private military corporation and put their years of experience to profitable. What must occur is a shift in the perception of what a mercenary is and can do.
