  2. I did make a parachute jumps with 2REP on Corsica a little over 20 years ago. Enough to get Frog wings. We do the same for them. It's more bling - with the ultimate goal being to look like a North Korean general.

    I also did some stuff with 13DBLE before that. Same thing, fun guys who like to shoot and blow things up.

  3. I read a history of the Légion. If you ever thought your military was shat on by politicians, they can match it story for story.

  6. I wish I could find it but there was a 60 Minutes or similar type show that did a story on the Legion. They toured the brig and the interviewer asks a guy in a cell what he did to end up there. Guy says he sold his CO's wife into slavery

  7. I seriously considered joining at one point in my life after getting out of the Marine Corps.
