Was the speaker Legion or French Regular Army?
Doesn’t say, might be the L’OMLT de la Legion Etrangère - but they (the French) alsouse Para and Mountain troops (Troupes de Montagne or one of the three numbered Bataillon de Chasseurs Alpins )
I doubt the person quoted was Legion Etrangère - they tend to trash talk anybody NOT in the Legion.

Interesting — I had the same question pop thru my mind. The French Foreign Legion is a very impressive elite force not to be trifled with and not to be dismissed lightly.
