Below is a clip from the story:
"Equipped with super-size blowtorches, the soldiers will spend six weeks in the eastern province of Limburg from Monday, waging a tree-by-tree war on the scourge of caterpillars, which cling in groups to trunks and branches."

I guess that means if we check back in a week or two. We'll be reading about all the forest fires in Limburg.

You think they'll pull double duty at the Mex-Us border? You know...pass out some belgium waffles, ale and health insurance cards.

I love how they use the word "DEPLOYED" like their troops were being dropped into a hot lz or something.
