Amazing interbellum pics of the Foreign Legion

Cheers Skipper,

I´ll put some more photos here.

 

Your Legionnaire seems to be an Indochina Veteran too Kai.

 

ok three more pics:






the convoy is getting closer to the base.




meanwhile the Legionnaires are making the concrete foundations for the monument. Note the pile of sand and stone and the shed to protect the cement.



the officers are watching and checking if eveything is done in a skilled manner

 

Truly amazing pics!

The Légionnaires have always been great builders!

 

Yes, they had craftsmen from all sort of jobs, going from architects, to engineers and of course drivers, bricklayers , carvers etc... when you put these guys al ltogether, they accomplished miracles , no matter their rank, social category , nationality, race or religion they were all one.
