French Foreign Legion by Douglas Boyd, Trade Paperback

Description: Founded in 1831 to fight France’s colonial wars without spilling French blood, this mysterious army is today a world-class fighting force. This is a world where fact exceeds the wildest fiction: men fighting literally to the last bullet at Camarón in Mexico in 1863; cooks and clerks with no parachute training volunteering to be dropped into beleaguered Dien Bien Phu in 1954 with the intention of dying beside their comrades; the paras who mutinied in Algeria to bring down the government of France; the heroes who dropped on Kolwezi to rescue thousands of European hostages.
