Description

The author recounts his firsthand experiences with the Foreign Legion during their bitter fight with the Druze in Syria in the late 1920s. This compelling book describes not only his participation in the ferocious siege of Rachaya Fort and numerous other brutal operations that put him in the thick of the action, but also depicts the difficult life of privation and hardship that was the lot of the Legionnaire. From his first meal at a mess that “would have given a British sergeant-major an apoplectic fit” through warfare and desertion, the author paints a vivid canvas of life in the Legion in the late 1920’s.
