I will be leaving the United states in june and joining the French foreign legion. I made the decision when my fiance left me on new years eve, it was an eye opener to me about where i was in life. I have a domestic violence charge from when i was 18 that will follow me For the rest of my life here. Im not going to tell my family until i have made it thru preselection, it will just be easier that way. I will be spending the rest of my time in the states training as hard as i can to get in good shape and working a shitty job saving money for travel expenses and documents required.
do it, push yourself to your limits and become a warrior
Gabriel Gutierrez
Good for you man! But some books and research what to expect. Also try and learn the basics of French language. Good luck!
Dominic Miller
learn french, if you havnt already your a fucking retard, they speak french in the french foreign legion believe it or not
Dylan Robinson
Learning French?
Elijah Watson
forgot about the ID tags?
Henry Bailey
Lel
Gabriel Martin
Good boy
Kevin Sanders
They've already sacrificed their country to Sholomo's altar of multiculturalism? Why are they fighting his wars?
Brandon Rivera
Kick ass, and Godspeed -
Elijah Jenkins
They prefer people with prior military experience, so you might not get in. Also start learning French.
Asher Lee
Not true
Brayden Adams
I heard its mostly boring, so if you except fight and chaos dont.
You will be mopping bathrooms, will train with shit equipement and when u get deployed in French Guinea or Mali you will be guarding some random posts and will be dying of boredom.
Ffl is romanticized a lot, but 90% of it just boring.
Easton Rivera
emberassing
James Torres
...
Gavin Sanders
So...... a criminal can join US armed forces?
Chase Cooper
anything for ((((you's))))
Caleb Gutierrez
Have fun dying. I worked with some FFL guys in Africa. They are solid guys but every guy said the same thing. They are under funded and under armed.
Get used to no C.A.S or gun ships and shitty pay.
I'm MARSOC, and they are hardcore, but they get the shit end of the stick more so than the Marines.
Alexander Fisher
Probaly will die on the first mission but good luck.
Jacob Reyes
>howdy fellow frogs where the dr pepper at
Anthony Jenkins
I know someone who did that once. Do anything wrong and two weeks in solitary confinement. Turn down promotion and two weeks in solitary confinement. Ask to leave and guess what? Two weeks in solitary confinement. Run along.
Carter Cooper
Don't listen to him. You will learn once there as everyone else. If you know French (or admit it) preselection and selection will be harder.
No, they don't.
Somewhat this, if you are not good enough for the career.
This too. It's not that dramatic though, no dying.
It's not that hardcore anymore.
Jose Lee
do it.
Mason Nguyen
i thought that they just turn people away if they don't speak french
No, it’s open to foreigners that are physically able to do it. There are different trainings tho, one is for French speakers from Metropolitan France and the other is for non French speakers.
Joshua Brooks
I´ll join you in 9 months
Matthew Davis
wow, that was just... very sad.
(You)
Easton Adams
>gf left me and my life sucks, therefore i'm going to make it even worse what's your endgame?
Xavier Martinez
Toughen myself up i suppose, i like the hierarchy of military but my own country doesnt want me
Owen Smith
>french foreign legion edgy
Kevin Cooper
That would be a pretty stupid rule and expectation since it's supposed to be a FOREIGN LEGION.
Nicholas Nguyen
>Toughen myself up i suppose i'm no one to be bragging about anything but for what i have seen lots of military men get cucked and pstd batshit crazy. you are not going to get tough. in these times your strength is in your wealth. if your country hates you go to a cheap country and get a cute gf.
Hudson Roberts
Well considering im single i imagine it would be a great time fucking french girls.
Colton Jackson
They teach basic French at their bootcamp. All recruits are expected to have learned 400 French words by the end of the training. The training is 3/4 month long if I remember well and then you are assigned to your final unit.
Christopher Wright
No, he means Lautenburg Ammendment, anyone with a DV conviction can't own/bare weapons. Fucking gay shit...
James Long
you wont get in. they basically only take ukranians.
sorry
Joseph Walker
the french foreign legion is based out of africa primarily, you will be fighting niggers alot so i guess thats good, but if u fuck nigresses u will get aids so thats not so great
Jace Thomas
so 3 weeks or 3 or 4 months. i guess americas education system dosnt have the same high standards as the french foreign legion
Chase Butler
Good luck mate! They are amazing people, much respect. Don't listen to morons here you'll learn basic French during your training.
Thomas Nelson
3 or 4 months. They have a special method called "Méthode Képi Blanc". They make each class of recruits repeat french words for hours everyday...
Connor Thompson
OP CONFIRMED MASSIVE FAGGOT
Ayden Turner
>in these times your strength is in your wealth.
Kevin Rodriguez
Just don't
if you have nothing to lose
Brody Price
>it would be a great time fucking french girls. Unlikely. The training camp is in the Pyrénées but you won't meet any girls there, cause you'll be training and shit. Then you'll most probably be sent to Africa (Mali, Ivory Coast) or Guyane. The parachutists are even banned from being stationed on mainland France ever since their unit backed the failed military coup in 1961 (they're in Corsica).
Luis Hill
yeah i think i remember something about this, bear grylls has a french foreign legion show where he joined the FFL training. they do the helmet and bell thing like the navy seals
Jeremiah Gray
Well i also like black girls so i can live with that. Ive also always wanted to see Africa.
Evan Johnson
also muh flag
petite anecdote, là bas les filles se massent autour des bar à légionnaire, à calvis c'est le paradis des femelles en chaleur et elles en ont pour tout les gouts
Jose Wright
French foreign legion is acually the hardest and the best military force to work in. Be ready for both if you really want to go in.
James Nelson
>no argument >A FUCKING LEAF
Jace Russell
kek didn't know that. I do live pretty far from the area.
Seriously, it's only worth iy if you're a Third Worlder with nothing to lose. 1st worlders are better off joining their own countries' military. The pay will be much better.
Asher Thomas

Aaron Flores
I've been interested since I was a kid, got out of the marines last year and am saving up for eye surgery and enjoying the civvy life for a bit before I make a go for it. Check out cervens forum if you haven't already, it's mostly old salt dogs rambling but there are a few young guys with more current information. youtube.com/watch?v=LxEpMsDZIic is a good watch.
Good luck.
Oliver Torres
You won't even pass the physical test, fattie. You need to able to run 3km (1.9 miles) in 12 minutes.
Connor Anderson
It's a really, really shit life in the Legion by all accounts that I've heard. But if you're a masochist then go for it.
Robert Taylor
You do realise they don't just take everyone and you only have 1 shot at joining and then that's it?
Also they are going to send you to shit skin countries, you wont be involved in anything fun.
It'll be even more fun when you understand the lyrics.
Cameron Cox
Ive done my research and understand the preselection process. Im going to learn french and be ready to exceed physically so that i have the advantage overother recruits.
Aaron Rogers
The Foreign Legion isn't completely part of France's military. Soldiers in the Legion make no oath of loyalty to France, only to the Legion itself. Meaning they can never be tried for treason against France, unlike regular soldiers.
Carson James
lol woman beating faggot is going nowhere fast. enjoy dying and/or getting fucked in the ass
Jordan Wood
Hey man it was mistake that i made almost 5 years ago. I only hit her out of instict but it was my fault, i also live in a very liberal city so now i owe like 5 grand and will be fucked when it comes to employment and housinf forever.
Angel Johnson
You're the best man, you did it
Cameron Richardson
White knight beta detected
Easton Turner
They will teach him proper French. It is part of the training.
Thomas Butler
Good luck
Ryder Howard
Should go black water
Grayson Scott
Private sector is my goal after my 5 year contact if i don't go career
The legion! The legion! The French Foreign Legion!
Matthew Stewart
Private is much better. Make sure to focus on medical if you actually are going legion. Your best chance in getting into anything else is combat medical
Kevin Morris
MARSOC isn't even a thing anymore u fucking LARPer it's Marine Raiders
Cooper Perez
larp is shitty
Jackson Clark
"Je me rends" All the french you'll need to know
Noah Thomas
Surrendering to Germany is still better to surrendering to emus.
Daniel Johnson
The US armed forces allows illegal wetbacks in
David Morales
Isnt that the place full of niggers and other 3rd world trash?
Camden Ross
They not only can, they do. A lot. US Criminals gangs have been sending their recruits into the military for decades, so that they get training in firearms/tactics and desensitized to killing.
>In 2008, according to FBI gang investigator Jennifer Simon, 1 to 2% of the U.S. military belonged to gangs, which is 50 to 100 times the rate in the general population. According to the Federal Bureau of Investigation's 2011 National Gang Threat Assessment, the NGIC identified members of more than 53 gangs who served in the military.
Ayden Hughes
Sounds to me like a good idea for yourself. I'm going with the first post.
