How is the current influx of "refugees" and "migrants" from the Middle East impacting recruitment for the Legion?
Here is breaking news just from today:

For people who are supposed to be considered migrants or refugees from a war torn country, they're up to date fashion and ear to ear grins seem to indicate otherwise. I've seen other articles that show them with expensive cell phones.
So I'm curious, have many of them have found their way to Paris or Aubagne? Is it something that Legion recruitment is aware and cautious of?
Will the influx of these migrants, as well as the resulting political, social, and economic issues in mainland France, cast a negative light on somebody attempting to join the Legion? Somebody from another country who has nothing to do with this issue and is merely seeking entry into the Legion, whatever his reasoning may be, and is a decent man who will make a fine Legionnaire, and possible French citizen. Will he be looked upon in the same manner as these migrants?
