    Just checked: LA to Amsterdam (Holland) costs 800 dollar, train ticket Amsterdam-Paris cost 50 dollar, food and shelter are provided by the Legion when you show up at the gates of Fort de Nogent. No need to save that much fellows.

    Yea, I'm more concerned with paying off debt than I'm with the flight ticket...

    I live in Duluth Minnesota, not LA. But I'll look into flights from Minneapolis to Europe.

    Gentlemen,
    Try to sort out your money problems. Then simply go for it. Become 'Hard Chargers'. Good luck.

    I will, from what I've been told by people varying from Legionaries themselves to other military members, there comes a time you have to say "**** it" and just go and stop worrying about "what kind of shoes should I bring"
