Waltheof Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 Just don't get caught in Fort Zinderneuf... And do you have something to forget? People join the Foreign Legion because they want to forget something... You may also have to learn French. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably the same one. Can't be many Sheffielders who were Paras, and who then went on to work for private security, and who are now raking it in.

I once read a book about an English chap who joined the legion. He went to Paris to join up. The information department at Paris main city hall might be able to direct you to the recruiting office Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
callippo Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 you'll be in Africa of course and it might get nasty. Think French and speak French. Go down the library and get a language course and play it in the car. They're not as bad as all that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostrider Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 I did over 5 years in the forces, a mate of mine joined the legion - he deserted after 2 months ! Not an easy life, but worth the rewards (so im told) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
