(28 votes, average: 4.25 out of 5)
If you are on the run, if you search for excitement, if you love to be a warrior, if you like to kill, if you have killed, if you have nothing to loose – then you go to the french foreign legion. Some call it an army of thefts – because it is said, that no one comes to the foreign legion, if everything is allright in your life. That’s why you have to sell everything you own when youjoin the french foreign legion. You even get a new identity – if you wisht to. All you have to do is survive for a minimum of five years and follow the orders of your superiors. The french foreign legion goes to places no one else wants to go. They fight their war until they die. But if they should survive, all their mistakes they made in their live before are forgotten. They start over with a new identity, a lot of experiences and some money in their pockets. But allthough it is called to be the toughest army in the world – only 1 out of 12 people get accepted as soldiers in the french foreign legion.

After 30 years in the RAN, if I had my time over again I’d be joining the Foreign Legion. A sensational documentary!!!

What does Gen. Schwarzkopf mean when he says “they are the ultimate builders… the PENultimate builders of unit cohesion…” ?
I think he may have said ultimate, then thought about it, and then backtracked to penultimate after thinking about Sparta or something without saying anything. Either that, or he just doesn’t know what penultimate actually means.
