Brenus, I've never been too small a character to admit I was wrong...
Not that you have proven anything yet, but it look like your training was hardcore (I know a thing or two of what it takes to get into that regiment, and what it takes to stay).

Days since the Apocalypse began
"We are living in space-age times but there's too many of us thinking with stone-age minds" | How to spot a Humanist
"Men of Quality do not fear Equality." | "Belief doesn't change facts. Facts, if you are reasonable, should change your beliefs."
I'm just happy that people didn't get massacred with an AK. It takes guts to attack someone armed like that. Cudos! Although I was SURE they weren't marines even before I read the article lol.
The closest thing I've had like this is stanging up to a drunk fat hunter who barged into our cabin while celebrating. Was with school mates, partying for prom (we do a lot of that here). He walked in with a loaded dobule-barreled shotgun, apparently with teh genius idea of scaring some kids and showing off.
I'm usually afraid to pick a fight but then I guess I was simply too stupid or too angry, I walked up to him, grabbed the gun and shoved it away from us, making it point at the wall, and I stood right in his face.
As the situation was defused by the girls, we calmed down adn he even let me fire it outside. It is not a memeory I'm particularly proud of, someone could have died ffs.
The art of war, then, is governed by five constant
factors, to be taken into account in one's deliberations,
when seeking to determine the conditions obtaining in the field.
These are: (1) The Moral Law; (2) Heaven; (3) Earth;
(4) The Commander; (5) Method and discipline.

Family-anacdote. My very intelligent sister calls my mother extreme right because she doesn't believe the guy on his word that he just wanted to rob the place. Her housekeeper is from Marocco and would never do that. Granted she wouldn't she's a sweetheart. But Geez allmighty on a motherffing plane. She is pregnant so she might be a bit unstable at the moment. Me and my mum were a bit errrrr can't you add things up
No way we will escape the pictures... As I said, AGES I waited for someone to be interested.
The Regimental Flag. In term of French Army, the 153 Rgt is new as it was created by Napoleon.
Tp answer the question, I had the choice to go there because I was the 5th in the result list. The Army says the first choose, the others are chosen. If you join the Legion, you go for the common training center. You don't join directly the 13 DBLE or the 1 REC or the 2 REP.
Little bit different if you join the Regular, you can join the 6 RPIMA, but I joined directly for the NCO training.
Me. Summer Uniform.
1st Squad.
