FFL French Foreign Legion
Okay maybe a little bone post but life's just gone upside down.
Not only have I lost my wife, the family home kid etc, but now my job! Nothing left to lose so should I "run" and join the FFL? Or is life brighter on the other side?

Re: FFL French Foreign Legion
Have you tried the British Legion?
No Crap haircut and marching really slow whilst singing songs about continually getting slaughtered in third world countries
Plus you can get a pie and a pint on a dinner time
Good luck regardlessWe should remember the tremendous contribution of the Queen Mother to the war effort:
As the BBC pointed out, she 'bravely remained in London beside her husband' during the war.
This contrasts sharply with the actions of my grandfather who, on the declaration of war immediately left his wife and children and pissed off, first to France, then North Africa, Italy, France (again) and finally Germany.
The shame will always be with us.

Re: FFL French Foreign Legion
Why are you asking us? It's your life. Why not the British Army?
On second thoughts it would be better to kill yourself.

A length of elastic through the sleeves of your coat and attached to them can stop you losing them. Originally Posted by stacker1

The harder the fighting and the longer the war, the more the infantry and in fact all the arms, lean on the Gunners - Field Marshal Montgomery.

Re: FFL French Foreign Legion
At least you'd have a job .... one with advantages and drawbacks.
Advantages.
Metropolitan France postings mean you are always near decent women [Nice etc.,]
You could be lucky and get posted to French Polynesia.
You get wine with your dinner.
You get [if you complete your contract] a French passport.
The pay outside of France is OK.
You learn another language.
If you get injured or wounded one of the good MILITARY hospitals will give you first class treatment in a timely fashion.
Disadvantages......
You could be posted to Kourou followed by Chad followed by Djibouti
Stag on!!!!!!!!!
