terminology
editQ is it correct to use the British army term "roulement" ( which I assume came from French at some point ) for French militart units? Or is this term used by the French amry ( in which please update the article )? 83.187.179.163 (talk) 22:14, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
LCA
editThis unit, the 13th Demi-Brigade of the Foreign Legion was the first to be transported into combat aboard the LCA. Whilst this fact is trivia in an article recording the military honours of the 13th, I would be most grateful if the mention of the LCA was retained. The last recorded combat use of the LCA type was also by French forces in Vietnam. Kind regards,AmesJussellR (talk) 19:18, 10 August 2010 (UTC)
Introduction
editThe introduction here says that 13e DBLE "is a unit of particular notoriety and reputation within the Legion"; what notoriety? The article doesn't give any hint of that. Also, it has "And is also the highest paid of all the Foreign Legion regiments"; what is the relevance of that? If this cannot be explained, it'd best be taken out.

- Yeah I just read the intro and saw this
It [....] is a unit of particular notoriety and reputation within the Legion. It is also the highest paid of all the Foreign Legion regiments
- What on earth does that mean?? Is notoriety used in terms of "bad" or for "good" reasons? Quite frankly, as it is supported by little else in the article, it sounds like utter nonsense. And should be removed.
