no elite corp in the world can follow and endure the training of the french foreign legion. more over in '91 the american screaming eagles were advancing in their bradleys thinking they were the first to cross the frontier into iraq and they have been surprised to see that the whole foreign legion was already here and took the place since 12 hours making shitloads of prisoners , and i got this story from guys of the 82nd.
on another note when there are multinational excercices like " cobra gold" and the french foreign legion is involved , all the other countries are learning from them.
when the airborne is going to train in france they just fear playing the game with the FFL, even know a guy who got his two thumbs broken with a gun handle while "playing" a prisoner.
i'm reporting here about the FFL as i've read a lot of bullshit from people who have not even been in the army. i have friends in the FFL, in the US marines, in the us airborne. all are agreeing that the most feared and effective force is the French Foreign Legion.
but mind that they are fighter and might not be as good as seals for undercover work.
