THE FRENCH FOREIGN LEGION
by Douglas Boyd

The French Foreign Legion is known for its austerity and discipline. One of the rewards for which men sign on with the Legion is French citizenship, and every legionnaire may claim it after serving three years with good conduct. The Legion has never had any problem attracting recruits - seven out of ten applicants are still rejected. The author tells the story of the Legion from its inception in 1831 to defend France's colonial interests, to the Legion of today involved in peacekeeping and humanitarian duties worldwide
