I guess it's only the politicians that hold up the white flags.

yeah, if you go up against the legion, and by some chance cut their numbers drastically, expect death charges and the like. they are driven to never surrender. it goes against so much history. i have a friend who wanted to join them, but a shattered knee from a car wreck stopped that.

The Legionnaire in the skull mask is I think a tank commander with the 1st REC, and the pioneers are the only troops in the Legion that are allowed to grow beards.

thats interesting, since they have determined that beards do somehow, add to a soldiers effectiveness

It's tradition for Pioneer/ Sappers to wear beards since the Legion started waaaaaaaaaaay back in the 19th century, along with wearing the Orange apron and carrying of the axe or mallet with the dress uniform

F the french I will support the Muslims over them any day. I can remember when my country the U.S. was hit by the Muslims on 9/11 and all the french could do is call america names and nock over american head stone in there country of americans that help free them in ww2. So F the french and I hope these muslims get the best of you. I hope the next time you will think before you attack friends that was once with you.
