Standing at the top of Pic Peric
- a 2600m high mountain near the Formiguerres. |

The first night we were
allowed "off the leash" so to speak, in a pub/restaurant at
Formiguerres. |

This is how I left Castel, having
survived four month of instructions and training |

At the train station, waiting to
jump on the train to Marseille and Aubagne.
The pictures were taken with a disposable camera but it nicely shows
the "Kepis" in the dark night and the home town of the people
proudly wearing them. |

The 2e REP "crew". Our
uniforms are now bare of insignias - having been definitely accepted
into the ranks of the REP, we threw all 4e RE/Castel badges into the sea
as part of an age-old tradition. |

My new home - Calvi, Corsica,
home of the 2e REP. |
