Hey Cred Forums. I've been thinking of joining up to fight isis. What does Cred Forums think of the french foreign legion?

know someone who served with them (ffl not isis)
they are pretty badass, but it's quite a different experience from even the french regulars

Pay is crap, life is tough but its an adventure from what I hear.

I think you should go and die

Full of savage Africans who want to get citizenship for living in France for 2 years.

Are you a fat pussy?
I doubt ffl would take any retard knocking at their door.
You would have to be a pretty tough retard.

Do you have military experience? Are you /fit/? Do you speak french?
If you answered no to any of these, don't.
If you answered yes to all of these, still don't. It's horrible.

Ive read the memoirs of a finnish sailor who joined the FFL in 1976. He stayed in for 28 years in 2REP and retired,he was deployed to Djibouti(then french somaliland),Kolwezi,Chad,Sarajevo and Ivory Coast

He used pretty harsh words for lazy people and nationalities in general.

Have you been to prison?
Do you have a problem with warcrimes?
Are you ready to die for a country that doesn't give a fuck about you?

If by fighting isis you mean tripping on a mine in africa sure.
If by that you mean a tour in syria/iraq we're never going to be here.
Join your own army, maybe they'll have another go soon

most legionnaires are from eastern europe these days

>Hey Cred Forums. I've been thinking of joining to fight for isis

yes (but the same as the regulars at least)
yes
no

somewhat true, also quite a lot of brazillians, russians, ukrainians, nepalese who didn't make the british gurka regiment etc. etc.

they prefer people without military experience so they can mould you their way
the fitness requirements aren't tougher than any other military branch from comparable countries
literally nobody (apart from the algerians and french officers) speaks french when you turn up, this isn't a problem, you pick up what you need fairly quickly

Just become a spec ops of your own country.

...and sudacas.

>maybe they'll have another go soon
>maybe

We never left

>British
>Having to make that distinction
Sad tb.h lads

Join the US Army. Madam President is gonna send them to Syria very soon.

You are right although i meant a real full scale tour
>not that book again

...

We already put 1,000 in Syria and 6,000 in Iraq.

Obama is literally setting up our next mission creep Vietnam.

The father of Sarkozy, after been ousted from communist Hungary because nobleman, enlisted in the FFL and obtained the French nationality after that.

Better join Hezbollah if you want to fight ISIS, they accept Christians

But you gotta go through their training. Plus Iran.
