a stupid tattoo on your face/arms, even if it seems to be small
(if you have a little drop near your eye, you can try to join; if you have a vagina tattoo between your eyes or a penis tatoo on your arm, stay at home)
a larger tattoo across your face (a genuine tribal tattoo is allowed in some cases)

The Irony, after WW2 thousands of Nazis joined and dissapeared around the globe,specifically indo china...

Foreign Legion? Completed it mate.

i must say a bit surprised at the quality of the training , more like elite, special forces. to train troops to that level then put them in regimental jobs seems unnecessarily expensive.

In one of the videos I have watched, they are described as elite but not special forces (one of their own officers said they are not special forces).

Yeah, they're especially tough grunts.

The polar opposite of 'special forces'.
