How is Blackwater, USA any different from the American Volunteer Group that worked to maintain open supply lines along the Burma Road in the early days of WWII?

I mean, other than the fact that Walt Disney (see photo) didn't design Blackwater's logo, and the head of Blackwater hasn't been praised by Dr. Seuss.

More here from Time (1942), and a post from OPFOR.

Found a few good ones here.
