How do average people in France view soldiers of the French Foreign Legion?
>>219339467One was a romanticist sofite, the other was an incompetent abrahamcuck with a cross up his ass.Sounds fake but is a funny story nonetheless of cathocuck delusions.
>>219339467With respect.Even if i have to admit that having a foreign legion is kind of embarrassing, because it makes people think that we are a bunch of pussies that need foreigners to fight for us.It reminds me that we are the only country to have a such thing beside Ukraine.
>>219339629that doesn't mean much anyway because the foreign legion has a lot of french soldiers, they just have to pretend to be swiss or belgian to be recruited and no one is going to checksome infamous chuds from the skinhead/biker movement are former 2nd REP legionnaires, like picrel on the right
>>219339701Why would a Frenchman join the French Foreign Legion?
>>219339629>it makes people think that we are a bunch of pussies that need foreigners to fight for us.Does anyone really think that?
>>219339824because it's a legendary unit of the french army and that it promises adventure and a blank slate to people who want a new start, what kind of a retarded question is that
>victory of the cross over the CresentOops! What happened there?
>>219339871Why not just join the actual, regular army then?
>>219339888They started importing the Crescent so they could be "victorious" (if you know what I mean) at home
>>219339467I think the contrast here mostly comes down to diplomacy. Germany was building its relationship with the Ottomans and expanding its influence into the Middle East. The French wanted to demonstrate that they were now in charge and were superior so acted overtly disrespectful.
>>219339871>a blank slate to people who want a new start, It's not 1946 anymore. They run normal background checks and dig very deep so what do you get other than a fake name to larp with?
>>219340174>They run normal background checks and dig very deepAnd clearly they dont care about what they find if its not involving organised crime or drugs
>>219339701They look gaulish af, straight from some Astérix book
>>219339871>a blank slate to people who want a new startToo bad they don't let criminal niggers who ran 100 people over in anymore, you need to be a relatively good goy if you want in.>it's a legendary unit of the french armyIt's a shitty little place with a long history.
>>219339856only insecure bitchboys like that poster
>>219339557Being a softie is good.
>>219339467the foreign legion is kind of gaytarded now because it professionalized too much into basically just being a normal part of the french army, they wont take you if you have a criminal record these days, which used to be the whole point of the foreign legion, it was to attract other nations disreputables to go and murder frances enemies. now its just random guys from other nations militaries who got bored but dont want to re-enlist
One in a milion french W
>>219341873this is only true if youre a firstie, if youre a thirdie they dont care because the host nation wont pursue you for charges, but firstie nations will harass france if they find out a criminal joined the foreign legion
>>219339629Si je rejoins la légion étrangère, est-ce que j’obtiendrai la nationalité française? J’ai étendu que des recrues doivent s’entraîner dans la jungle de la Guyane française
>>219342077bah oui, that's the ideaI don't think everyone does the guyane training though
>>219339888Why do you live in Canada?
>>219339629I believe Americans offer foreigners the option to serve in the military to get citizenship o algo
And then the french seethe about muslims not respecting their culture.
