Here is an interesting 40 minute documentary about Operation Serval, the ongoing operation conducted by French forces in Mali. It's in French, but the visuals are captivating. Mali has a wide variety of desolate wastes, from large rocks to small rocks to flat nothingness to traditional sand desert, all providing unique problems for the soldiers and aviators. I believe this is the first Operation Serval documentary with embedded reporters. Envoyé Spécial is a long-running newsmagazine program. Start viewing at the 39:45 mark. I don't think BigSoccer understands time codes in YouTube url's.
