"Told through the eyes of a soldier, and interspersed with humorous anecdotes, Appel is a fascinating story that debunks myths about the French Foreign Legion and shows it more accurately as a professional arm of the French military. Struthers provides insight into the rigorous discipline that the Legion instills in its young recruits, --who trade their identities as individuals for a life of adventure and a role in a unified fighting force whose motto is "Honour and Loyalty." -- From publisher's website.
