when 
the issue of mission motivation hit me: mercenaries are not (usually) 
ideologically engaged in conflicts - so obviously their motivation is
going 
to be more...well mercenary

That's not always the case--there are certainly instances in modern
history of mercenaries who volunteered to serve another country for
ideological reasons.  Lafayette Escadrille and Flying Tigers might be
the best known to an American but there are other examples in Africa, SE
Asia and Central America.
