This photo was taken on the farm
of the "CIC", where they instruct/teach the future Caporals
and Sous-Officers. We're wearing the now obsolete old-style army-green
fatigues and old-fashioned "brelage" style webbing. |

A victorious but hungry, dirty
and tired legionnaire. Taken on the last day of the Reg. Ex. which we
spent defending a village against "attacks" from the 4e CIC,
to the confusion of the local civilian population. Little did I know at
that stage that I'd be doing the same thing a few month later with real
bullets and real enemies... |

The last moments of existence for
the 3eme section of the 2e CEV of the 4e RE. Having been affected into
various regiments, we had to say our goodbyes to each other. Taken at
Augbane, at the C.A.P,L.E. : a waiting area for legionnaires in transit |

...our rooms. When we finished,
the floors were clean enough to eat from. |
