Video: Foreign Legion and its influence | French Foreign Legion Information

Today, the Foreign Legion published a nice French documentary about the art within the Legion and how the Legion had (and still has) an influence on artists – painters, poets, novelists, singers etc.

The documentary itself was released in May 2013, to celebrate the 150th anniversary of the memorable Battle of Camerone and to present the reopened Foreign Legion Museum, placed in Aubagne within the 1st Foreign Regiment (1er RE), the Legion’s HQ.
