One of my favorite books was "legionnaire" by Simon Murray about his 5 years as a paratrooper in the foreign Legion in the 60’s. Very tough outfit,superb training, I would put them in the top tier of fighting units.

One of my favorite films on the French Foreign Legion is March or Die starring Gene Hackman and Catherine Deneuve. Includes a long scene where the Legionaires make a desperate stand against desert fighters swarming their fort.
