I was far to busy chasing posh totty in my 20s.
Private school educated Daddy's girls FTW.
Preferably with a background in ballet.
All we did off duty was chase tail.

I did score quite a bit, not posh tho, obviously soldiers are not invited to those parties.

I wasn't keen on officer country, I liked being in the ranks, one of the boys.

Most of the ones I met were waitressing while they worked out what to do after University.
Daughters of doctors etc. One whose father was a crown court judge. She was too high on the hot/crazy index though.
Vicars daughter was the dream, they were always the dirtiest.
For legal reasons, we are not threatening to destroy U.S. government property with our glorious medieval siege engine. But if we wanted to, we could. But we won’t. But we could.

You probably would have liked the Legion.

Very egalitarian compared to a British Army.

Everybody suffers together on the pilgrimage.

They're also not socially conservative, there were gay Legionnaires, nobody cared so long as they did their job.

It's full of eccentrics, their tolerance for eccentricity was very high for a military formation.

They really don't fucking care what you do on your own time, so long as you are ready to go when TSHTF

Big rugby playing tradition in the South of France. I bet the legion has a team.
I would have wanted to be an officer if I'd joined though. Better food and more intelligent company. I was most impressed with the marines and the paras in my time on the training camps.

Once you complete the tour with the Legion and become French, then you can go Marine-Para.

I tried to get a passport and nearly lost my mind. Ok I take all my clothes off and pass it through the metal detector

"NA AH SAH YOU NEEDS TO GET RID O DAT WEAPON ON DE FEDERAL PROPERTIES"

Ok it's my Swiss army knife do you want it? I payed like ten bucks for this thing and I don't feel like taking it to my car after I redress only to undress

"NO SAH THIS IS THE FEDEREAL PROPERTIES MMMHMMM"

Ok toss it out the door

"SAH IS THE WEAPON STILL ON THE FEDERAL PROPERTIES???"

I guess it is. Maybe I'll chuck it into the street which is CITY property that I pay taxes for which apparently pay your fuggin paycheck

"SAH WHERE IS DA WEAPON"

What weapon?


Get to the passport office sometime later.

"You need to buy a ticket to expedite your passport unless you have an appointment otherwise please see one of these conveniently located locations all over the city."

Ok go to the airport.

"You want a ticket to where?"

Get me the fuck out of here

Call Mr roboto to buy a ticket.

"Please hold for thirty minutes"

GIVE ME A FUCKING TICKET TO FRANCE

IDK WHERE FUCKING PARIS I WILL PAY CASH RIGHT FUCKING NOW

Ok sir that will be 2800 dollars. Unless you want a round-trip that will only be 1200 dollars.

K then. I feel like I'm getting somewhere now. Looks like this is going to be the most expensive prank I ever pulled on myself.
