Good Work
Synopsis
A group from the Foreign Legion forgotten, abandoned somewhere in the gulf of Djibouti. Remnants of a ghost army which pays war and mends roads. At Marseille, the ex-warrant officer Galoup reminds him of this happy time, of this well orchestrted life, of his men, his dear herd. But eventually what he really lost is his commander. His commander he didn’t want to share with a young legionary.

About
Shroud the horse in sable -
For the mounds they heap!
There is firing in the Valley,
And yet no strife they keep;
It is the parting volley,
It is the pathos deep.
There is glory for the brave
Who lead, and nobly save,
But no knowledge in the grave
Where the nameless followers sleep.
Herman Melville, “Sheridan at Cedar Creek”
