1er REG: Paying Homage to Major Nikolic | French Foreign Legion Information

On July 22, 2014, legionnaires from the 1st Foreign Engineer Regiment (1er REG) took part in a ceremony honoring their comrade-in-arms, Adjudant-chef Dejvid Nikolic, who was killed in Mali a week earlier, on July 14, and posthumously promoted to the rank of Major. The ceremony took place at Quartier Général Rollet in Laudun, the 1er REG’s garrison.

Legionnaires from the 1er REG and veterans’ organizations paid homage to Major “Niko” Nikolic during the event. The ceremony was led by French Defence Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian.
