    The five year contract is the biggest hurdle for me. If I sign up today, I'll be over 30 when I leave. But as they say - you'll be 30 anyway, so you might as well be 30 and a legionnaire.

    So sad. Two years after serving in the US Air Force I went to France to join the legion in 1983. Was going through the process for just over 3 weeks with all of a sudden and much to my surprise I was mustered out.
    I was giving my pay up to that time and a little slip of paper to show the police that I was not a deserter and I and several others who were leaving that day were escorted to the gate and said goodbye to. The reason? They said I had flat feet. I do not.
    I never found out the real reason, but I was very depressed when I found my way into a pub just outside the gate at Aubagne. Naturally it was full of legionnaires.
    With my shaved head and dejected look it was obvious what had happened and some of the English-speaking guys started to talk to me and bought me a few beers and and joked about how lucky I was because "the Legion is shit". But I knew they were just teasing.
    Sitting around there talking with them and laughing and joking of course made me feel a little better but sad at the same time knowing that I was never going to have that. Never have the pride that went with having been a legionnaire.
    So back to the states I went where me and my not flat feet join the Army reserve which got me and my still not flat feet deployed to Desert Storm 7 years later.
    And of course I hardly mention it to anybody because nobody believe that you left California to go to France to join the French Foreign Legion. A few of my clothes lifelong friends no but that's about it. The only satisfaction I have is that I actually went and tried to do it, as opposed to those guys that back then just sat around and reading Soldier of Fortune and talked about what a badass Rambo they would be if only given the chance.

    1380 Euros for a single young guy is massive money . This is basic money that vastly improves with tours and grades . Compare what I was earning as a young single corporal in Bosnia ( come home from tour with lots of savings ) to my civilian job as a parent nowadays and there is no contest as to which paid better . Back in those days if you had no cash you didn’t leave camp and got beer on credit .. nowadays you just don’t eat and lose your house ...

    Love to have the T-shirt, but I live in the southern USA. Wish I'd had this info in the 70s. If I wore that awesome shirt, I'd have it ripped off my chest in a second. I live on my sailboat in Tampa Bay right next to CENTCOM. Way to many country's military personnel here to not get questions. I did graduate from a southern military college with a degree in history, but was rejected by the navy ,and the Legion never occurred to me. At 6ft, 200 lbs, and in shape ,when I would have entertained the idea , all I knew was Beau Geste. Wish it had been more. I did, however, get my civilian certification to Captain up to a 100 ton Vessel recently retired. Capt.Bob, SV ( Sailing Vessel) 27th Chance, Tampa Fl. USA 🇺🇸

      You have to pass selection to go to 2eme REP, having served in one of the other legion infantry regiments for a couple of years.

    Tomas, Can you get more contracts to stay for more years over the age of 39 and half if you have already been the legion before and served 5 years ?? Or is your career over once you reach 39 and half ??

      39 1/2 is cut-off age to enlist. You don't have to get out at that age. They have many Legionnaires past 40, 45 and likely a few past 50.

      Realistically it would be difficult but not impossible. You need permission from your commanding officer, but the biggest hurdle would be the loss of free rent and food. I suspect going in to the legion with this as a concern, is the wrong mindset for a career in the Legion. Perhaps join the army where you are if you can.
