Hi everybody and thanks for your time.
I'm just a wannabe that before meeting this forum (couple of weeks ago) knew the ffl as described in the old movies i.e. settled in algeria fighting at war all time.I'm pleasantly surprised that times are changed.
My main reason for joining the legion is because i'm too old for joining my home country's army where the cut off age is 25.Unfortunately i discovered too late what it could be my passion.I''m 30yo,unmarried and without a profession so i actually concluded nothing in my life.The legion may give me the chance to make the change.
I'm in a perfect shape,i love sport,the adventure and working hard.I've been travelling the world for some yrs away from home and now i feel inapte to everyday life,i still need adventures.I have the opportunity to join the italian fire department,a noble job to be a firefighter,but not yet enough exciting for me.
let's get to the point.being already 30yo i'm still looking for the adventure,but also in a kind of stability,of a career and possibly one day to be so lucky to find a wife to make a family with.So,here are my questions:
Once the basic ends,how's the everyday life in the regiment for a leggionaire?
How often are practised combat sports?and sport in general?
how much free time do you get?on your first yrs,after the first contract,etc
what are more or less the working hours?are u free to leave the regiment at the end of the day?
After how long time are you allowed to sleep out of the barraks(during the weekdays as well?)and so to have a partner to share the everyday life with?(let alone the times you're on stages,opex,etc)
Can u marry before the end of your first contract if you make it to sgt?
So,how is it the social life?
And what's the difference in these things about the 2 rep?
I understand the meaning of legio patria nostra and that should be the answer to all my questions,but i'm asking to you anciens because like for everything else the reality is different from the legend sometimes.
I believe is better to think twice evaluating as more as possible instead doing something something stupid,loosing time and to be one more diserter.A gave word must be respected.
i apologise for my english
Thanks a lot
