#1 Trust me guys but the Legionaires are really really bad dudes, they are all trained more as special ops guys than regular elite forces. A lot of the special intelligence the Frogs get on terrorists comes from these guys.

If I were a turban I would stay very far away from them. Not only are they ruthless, well trained and relentless but they are also vendictive. Kill a Legionaire and they will hunt you down like an animal and treat you like one...me thinks have the Legion accompany us on ops and having them "take" all of the enemy combatants gives them the opportunity to use their very special skills of interrogation and persuasion...heh heh heh
