Title: Foreign Legion ... Ha.
Review: What a horrible disappointment this book was. Maurice had visions of an honorable life in the legion, it was not as he expected. I had expectations of a realistic gritty portrayal of life as a legionnaire. Instead what I got was a tale of a perfumed prince, a rich boy, who whines unceasingly through the entire book. He never fires his weapon, he never serves on the front, the farthest he ever has to road-march is 15 miles, and he gets to sleep under a roof most of the time. Still, he complains. At three months he decides to run away. That's right after only three months he decides to split. If you are interested in hearing about a rich boy whine about how mean everyone is to him this is the book for you. I frankly wouldn't use it to wipe my ass, and not just because I read the Kindle version.
