Aye, but this is still the Legion we're talking about here in this article- and they do represent France in this matter. I don't look for them to surrender...

That's refreshing. Thanks for the info. I had no idea France had real men.

What the Foreign Legion thinks of the French Regular Army:
"When, a French Soldier goes into hospital, it is to have himself sent home. With an African Tilailleur, it is to be healed. With a Legionnaire, it is to die".
(John Robert Young)
One of the Legion's big holidays is Camerone Day
