Legionnaire

An elite combative

The previous page was: "Kukri Knife"

Legionnaire; when you sign up in the French Foreign Legion; there are seven principles that you swear to abide by. The 1st is: You are a volunteer, serving France with Honour and Fidelity.

The 2nd is: Each Legionnaire is your brother in arms whatever his nationality, his race or his religion might be. You show him the same close solidarity that links members of the same family.

The 3rd is: You respect your traditions and your superiors. Discipline and friendship are your strengths. Courage and honesty are your virtues.

Kukri Knife

You are proud of being a Legionnaire

The 4th is: You are proud of being a Legionnaire. You are always well mannered and smart. Your behaviour is of the best. You are always modest and your quarters are always clean and tidy.

The 5th is: You are an elite soldier who is rigorous with himself. You consider your weapon as your most precious possession. You constantly maintain your physical fitness.

The 6th is: Your mission is sacred. It is carried out until the end, in respect of the law, the customs of war international conventions, if needs be, at risk to your own life.

The 7th is: In combat you act without passion or hatred. You respect vanquished enemies. You never surrender your dead, your wounded, or your weapons.

The quality of the French combative would entitle him to wear the coveted Green Beret.
