There is no toughest soldier in the world. Every soldier on battlefield is just one bad day way from pushing up daisies. There are just good soldiers and bad soldiers.
French Foreign Legion is a branch of the French Ground Forces (Arme de Terre). If they were mercenaries that means you could buy them to fight for you like any other PMC, which is not possible. So instead of being a simpleminded troll, maybe educate yourself first.
@louistan7560 "Tough?" According to at least three members of the US armed forces I knew, the French Foreign Legion is very professional, and very tough indeed.
@@RogueArcher24 The most experienced soldiers are now fighting, but not only with all kinds of the latest weapons, but even in hand-to-hand combat with knives. The whole world is watching them. But these are not the French.
These guys have not fought a war like in Ukraine, Russians are facing Ukraine plus Nato support and still advancing foward Russians are the toughest they showed it in WW2 and they're showing now
once had some discussions with other soldiers about french foreign legion as to their ways and doctrines because they had to correct me on the point of abuse of the ways the officers would abuse those below as a privelidge this was also while discussing the abuses of usa marines corps ways during training and their whole narcassistical nazism within themselves there were other discussions also but typically we did have a consensus about what levels of line abusive behaviour actually is or is not meaningfully constructive and sorry to say but french foreign legion ways could do with a bit of tweaking at least in terms of modern ethical western standards + positive moral positive ways whilst not actually being so much different in the general culture and spirit 1 usmc guy got really hurt bad during the training and left, almost commited suicide totally unnecessary and un-called for irresponsible behaviour by the others around him who were basically bullying him and torturing him for 0 professional reasons, just to get rid of him purely that so when i see nasa people with the marines backgrounds i do wonder actually if they had it as bad back when they were in the marines themselves maybe yes, maybe no their more general historical culture and ways those military doctrines glad not to be a military person for those misgivings the poor ethics

Considered the toughest…by who?
I respect legions but not good for syria.
France's outsourced army from its colonial past.
@@dcassus good take
The SS said hold my beer
They committed war crimes in Indochina and still got beat
Like Great Britain in Germany in World war II with their illegal fire, bombing of Dresden, etc? They celebrate farmer Harris to this day...
You can close comment section already...

French Guyana
That's why french surrend if war with any strong military. A man paid never win who has strong will.
to answer the thumbnail: no
1 drone attack 😂 in technology war...army not important 😂
Vietkong the Vietnamese are the master fighting force in the world.
I like your humorous comment
French trained and equipped 155th brigade of Ukraine.
1700 deserted without a fight.
So there are no deserters in ANY war? How about the COUNTLESS deserters from Russia and across its regions? Wake up, this isn't hollywood, m0r0n.
It's called rotation

Mercenaries they are, no more than that
just like any soldier who gets paid.

@paulyan8891
Does it hurt, maintaining that level of ignorance?
@@paulyan8891 sous homme !Ignorance kills 🤣
@@gloin10what are you saying they're ignorant of??
If the French had treated their former colonies decently, they wouldn't need a Foreign Legion.
Maybe you misundstand
It's the people in the legion that are foreigners
Jesus Christ! Fireflies!
Sorry to say but the Ukrainians are by far the toughest soldiers nowadays.
The ones who actually show up, because they have hundreds of thousands of deserters. This is why they are facing problems now.
You mean those who are trained in Paris and 1700 fled, Chinamerica countrypumpkin? Is that bb c and cnn told you?🤣🤣🤣
The Azov are weaklings...

Sorry, but they wouldn’t last a week in Ukraine. But big respect for France 🇺🇦🇫🇷

Completely destroyed africa? 🤣🤣🤣 that victim card is long invalid
these are like PMC Wagner, but not just as tough.
Exactly 💯. They’re third rated form of Wagner 😂

France definitely has to most experienced soldiers

I hope macron does not waste these men's lives in Ukraine.
These clowns never heard about Ghorkha soldiers
once had some discussions with other soldiers
about french foreign legion as to their ways and doctrines
because they had to correct me on the point of abuse
of the ways the officers would abuse those below as a privelidge
this was also while discussing the abuses of usa marines corps ways
during training and their whole narcassistical nazism within themselves
there were other discussions also but typically we did have a consensus
about what levels of line abusive behaviour actually is or is not meaningfully constructive
and sorry to say but french foreign legion ways could do with a bit of tweaking
at least in terms of modern ethical western standards + positive moral positive ways
whilst not actually being so much different in the general culture and spirit
1 usmc guy got really hurt bad during the training and left, almost commited suicide
totally unnecessary and un-called for irresponsible behaviour by the others around him
who were basically bullying him and torturing him for 0 professional reasons, just to get rid of him
purely that
so when i see nasa people with the marines backgrounds
i do wonder actually if they had it as bad back when they were in the marines themselves
maybe yes, maybe no
their more general historical culture and ways
those military doctrines
glad not to be a military person for those misgivings the poor ethics
🤣🤣🤣 "the toughest soldiers in the world" 🤣🤣🤣surrendering at first shot. Says paid liars on the US Military base called Germany.
Pmc Wagner no1
