A French soldier -- deployed as a peace-keeper in the Central African Republic (CAR) -- was photographed wearing a Nazi slogan on his uniform, the Big News Network website reports today (December 22, 2013).
The patch -- written in German -- reads "My Honor Is Loyalty," the former slogan of Hitler's SS (storm trooper bodyguards) during World War II.
"This is an unacceptable attitude that doesn't reflect the reality of the armed forces," said army spokesman Col. Gilles Jaron.
The French army has some 1,600 soldiers deployed in the CAR as part of an international peace-keeping force.
