Anyone know about the FFL? I can't find much about them.
Marines not work out?
He shared some really funny/absurdist stories about his experiences there but did NOT seem like a very happy guy. I think that he saw some awful things there.
You really want to kill people, don't you?
I shared a couple of drinks with an FFL guy in a Parisian dive bar a few years back. He was a Romanian who had joined just to get out of his own country and ended up being assigned to patrol the rebel border in the Cote d'ivore.
Not so much. It's just coming back from boot camp it feels weird to live life without any stress at all. I've talked to a few former US service members and I was told my chances of getting a waiver to return are slim to none.
Probably blown out of proportion. They get the crappiest gear/hand me downs of the French military, and are stationed in the worse cesspools of the world, on the edge of civilization. In the last several decades, they've rarely engaged a "regular" fighting force (instead rebels, insurgents, etc). That's not good for anyone's mental health.
the pay isn't bad, and you can get french citizenship and an EU passport out of it. if I wasn't busy at your age, I might have done it myself. what did you want out of the military? to see a little of the world? get tough? do some wild ****? that's what you will get out of the FFL. will you have fun, probrably not. will you meet some really crazy guys, **** some skanky whores and end up a very differnt person from your high school friends in 5 years. damn right.
He worked in africa my friend. Be there long enough and you'll see the very worst.
