We (some of my brother's I served with) call these guys a "Walt". I think it was one of the comrades from great Britain who came up with that. I wish I had a dollar for every fake Legionnaire i've met. They were all special something, or elite thingy... Nobody ever claims that he was a cook or a mechanic there. All were HALO/HAHO super commandos. Until you ask the most basic things...

And speaking of the Legion Estrangere..........
Might be a little 'off topic', but do you ever visit the Cervens.Net French Foreign Legion Forum?
Many of the members there are current (or prior) Legionnaires. Lot's of good information and discussion is shared..

MEANING OF "FTW"
Going to let you guys in on an inside secret that only a few of us know. We usually don't tell outsiders our secrets but since we are all just buddys, here is the real meaning. (LEO please don't let on i told you.) It really is a religious patch meaning "Follow The Word." Hope i don't get killed for spilling our secret.

I know Cervens NEt since a long time, never made it to sign up, tho. I am already online way too much as for now. I am moderator "saarbaer" on a german speaking site, and that takes a lot of time.

Deutsch lernen war für mich einfach. Ich heiratete eine.
This 3 piece patch means I'm a Vietnam Veteran and I ride a Harley-Davidson motorcycle. I just finished it and haven't had it sewed on yet. You won't see a center patch like this one.

BACA Patch
BACA isnt an MC, but heres what our patch means.
* White represents the innocence of the children.
* Red represents the blood of the children that has been spilled.
* The fist represents our opposition to child abuse.
* The skull and crossbones is the symbol to the death of child abuse.
* The chains represent our united organization.
They went through a helluva lot to get the patch, working with alot of the MC's to get the colors cleared. I'm proud as hell to to be a member.
