Embrace the suck. No politics.

Soldiering for soldiering's sake alone.

Aussies know.

You have to like soldiering tho. You have to be able to enjoy it.

To make it in the Legion, you have to get into the technical trade of it, the fighting skills.

You might be a Soldier of Fortune, but it's not private, the Legion is in the French Armee.

You are executing French policy, you are in NATO

But you're not political, you're there for the pilgrimage, personal growth, to find yourself in the jungle.

All the French are offering you, is the Kepi Blanc, nothing more, nothing less.

I just want to see how they live. To see if I can live that life. I want to see something new and God willing, not be a complete failure all my life. Tired of spinning my wheels going nowhere.

They live like we did in the army, they have barracks, they're not bad, the food is good, not American style, but it's not slop, they eat well. The training is world class, the equipment is state of the art.

You'll get most weekends off when in garrison, the hard part is deployments, that's when you're stuck in some camp somewhere, but when in garrison, they live well, they have a good time.

It's basically just like the French Army, except they are at the tip of the spear, high readiness shock troops.
