The incredible story of Bob Denard, the mercenary of the Fifth Republic and one of the greatest military figures of the 20th century. This colourful condottiere showed a marked taste for adventure and combat from a young age. At 16, he joined the French army, which he left six years later after the end of the Indochina War. This is only the beginning of an extraordinary story marked by coups d'état, open comradeship and controversy.
Always in the service of the Republic and under identities as varied as his facets, Bob Denard took part in armed conflicts in the Congo, Yemen and Benin and accompanied coups d'état in the Comoros. A look back at the legendary career of one of the most famous mercenaries of the 20th century.
