     THE GUIDE OF A PROFESSIONAL MERCENARY 
                                   (viper010.) 

 
by DAIMYO 

 
     Some of us want to be doctors, lawyers, 
programmers, or millionaires - still others wish 
for something else. A profession with a little more 
excitement, where the gamble is higher than usual. 
Where it is all or nothing, where Va-bank is the 
everyday life. Yes folks, there are people out 
there who want to be professional mercenaries. 

     The profession of a soldier of fortune is 
fairly unknown. Very little has been written about 
it, or rather very little of real-life substance. 
However, I can easily tell you some statistical 
numbers - for they usually are the only truth. 

     A yearly income of a Soldier of Fortune varies 
from month to month. It is better looked at as 
annual monthly income. Which is, depending on the 
training of a soldier, time of year, position on 
the hierarchial ladder, specific place on the 
planet, and the need for such purely professional 
soldiers - ranges from 400 to 40,000 US dollars. 

     The latest reports from the Balkans, show that 
a new mercenary recruit gets paid as low as 200 
dollars a month (that is the price for the greenest 
of green, those mercenaries who can barely shoot 
straight). 

     Another latest report this time from Chechnya, 
shows an average daily income of up to 1 thousand 
US dollars (that's for a day's work). 

     But to get that much money each day, one would 
have to be a professional. A question arises right 
there, "How can an ordinary man become a 
professional mercenary?"  Well, its not easy and 
some spending has to be done before anything 
happens. 

     Usually, it is better to learn on the job. 
That way, you get paid, you get free education, and 
experience. The only places that can give you such 
a combination are unfortunately located primarily 
in Europe. 

     In the Balkans, a rookie can still receive 
good basic training in strategy, combined arms, and 
basic combat techniques. It is also very cheap, 
because they pay you. And not too life-threatening, 
because most soldiers out there are amateurs, and 
most mercenaries are just as green as you are. 

     Now to learn some heavy urban, street-combat, 
ambushing and sniping techniques one should go to 
Chechnya. The war there is far from over, although 
I doubt you'll be able to learn any urban warfare 
by the time you get there. Although, guerilla 
actions, and long range sniping missions will do 
wonders to your professionalism. 

     The pay is good (at least 400 US dollars a 
week). There are also many professionals, from 
Iranian mercenaries to Estonian and Ukrainian 
militants. So you will get good lessons. 

     However, one drawback is evident. The newly- 
arrived Russian Federation Marine Brigade will be 
leaving soon, but more units from Russian Ministry 
of Internal Affairs will be coming. And, I do not 
know about you, but I'd rather take on two Marines 
than on one Spetsnaz. But of course that's just me. 

     You can reach Chechen militants in Istanbul 
(Turkey), Tehran, and if you are fast enough, right 
here in the United States (I hear a foreign 
minister of Chechen republic is around). 

     Other than those two areas, you can try your 
luck in South America, Central Africa, Middle East, 
and South-East Asia. However, I would advise on 
getting experience first in some small-time local 
war, before going to work for big guns. 

     BTW, did I forget to mention that CIA (USA), 
United States Army Intelligence, and a few dozen 
other intelligence Agencies and groups constantly 
higher well-trained mercenaries for small (and not 
so small), high paying jobs! 

     In this profession, the Sky is the Limit to 
your personal growth. In the worst case, you will 
end up working for some European or middle-eastern 
terrorist group (in the education department), and 
will be making a good living in your old years.
