Various pictures from Libreville, both the
city itself and from the Camp De Gaulle, as the base of the 6e BIMa is
called. |
 |
The
main entry into the Camp De Gaulle, with its kepi-clad Legionnaire
guard. |
 |
Another
overall view of the main entry. |
|
A
shoe store on the outskirts of Libreville. |
|
The
back streets of Libreville. Like many other cities in Africa, communal
hygiene is of a poor standard compared to European cities. |
|
A
Libreville intersection. The same laws that apply in the Gabonese jungle
apply on its roads - the local drivers are so hazardous and the streets
are so badly maintained that driving any sort of vehicle is downright
dangerous. |
 |
This
is still classified as a road in a good condition, and all sorts of
vehicles, including heavy buses and trucks, pass through here regularly. |
 |
The
Cotton Club, a nightclub frequented by many military personnel of the 6e
BIMa, the Legionnaires included. |
