| Forum Barbecuer | Perhaps this one: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Foreign-Legion/dp/B0006ZLD8M A bit outdated perhaps but worth a view. I recommend the book "My Five Years As Legionaire" by Øyvind Paulsen, Orion Publishing. I am not sure if it's available in English but to give you a brief summary he joined the FFL in the mid 80s and has described in detail his life in the legion the five years until he was dismissed. A good read. |

| Milforum Chaplain  | Dougal, where I'm posted we teach Army recruits and one of the videos we show is called "Recruits. " It features the training and history of the FFL - but also the US Marines and British Army. It is a British production and probably 20 years old. Don't think you can buy it but libraries, especially military ones should have it. |
