#1 This is Haitian Intervention I(a). in your FMF guidebook.

Little likelyhood of resistance, big man gone, the usual chaos. Use discretion.

#2 Let's see... former French colonial region... just like the Ivory Coast.

Hmmm. Stinky cheese.

#4 DO you get the feeling that the marines were embarked and ready to go for as soon as Aristide left? If they come by ship, - I wouldn't want to fly in there - we'll know that the fix was in.

#5 How would we just happen across enough sober marines in a barracks on a Sunday to complete this mission?
