It's sad that alot of people assume all French Foriegn Legionairs are former criminals, just escaping their crimes. When many are either thrill seekers, veterans looking for a new challenge, or just normal people looking for a new life in the Legion and France itself. I wish the United States had a branch like the Foriegn Legion in our Military. I feel it'd help with alot of our illegal immigrants and non-U.S. Citizens seeking citizenship, if they want it badly enough and don't want to go through the normal American immigration procedures. Put U.S. Marine veteran officers in command of the branch and the training, they'll be the true rivals to the US Marines, not the wannabes in the US Army. Haha.

Thank you. RIMA and 2ème REP two of the most respected units within the French army. The mythical 2ème Régiment Étranger de Parachutistes the Legion's finest and the Régiment d'Infanterie MArine the highly praised commando unit of La Marine. Both reputed to be no quitters and fighters to death. Remember Camerone in Mexico where legionnaires fought to the end, earning the respect of yet another no quitter, the Mexican army.

Hi, I don't know how long the training lasts, but it would be over several months. Corporal minimum. GCM are mountain and GCP are more the equivalent to the British pathfinders.
