14. Good news and not surprising.

Back during the days of the Bush Administration I recall reading stories about how much the regular U.S. military personnel hated the Blackwater guys. They were pissed that these guys were getting paid six figures while they were making much less and hated the arrogant attitude that the Blackwater guys had. There were a lot of stories about Blackwater personnel mistreating locals, bringing in prostitutes and drugs like steroids and other crazy stuff.
