Excellent video!

I have no doubt that the Foreign Legion has some of the toughest soldiers and training in the world....I've heard stories of tough, battle-hardened former Marines who joined the Legion because they "weren't getting enough real combat action in the Corps"......

Men who feel they have nothing worth living for are potentially the most dangerous men in the world.....

Here's a few more that are pretty cool. There's also a book out by a Canadian guy, Evan McGorman, that's pretty interesting.

The dive shop in Souda Bay, Crete, where I used to get my scuba tanks filled was owned by two former Legionnaires. They were pretty cool guys, I did a few dives with them and became friends with them after a while. Having said that, I would not want those guys as my enemy. They are silent professionals I can tell you that, and they have my utmost respect.
