SH5 Easter Eggs

I think it started with this:

Then there's the whole WW2 capitulation in 1940, which pissed off most brits, although many forget that it was the valiant sacrifice of the French army that allowed for the evacuation of the Expeditionary Force at Dunkirk. Also most forget that it was the French who were the most successful and feared soldiers in WW1. And then there's the Foreign Legion which make the Seals look like paintball players.

But hey, even I make friendly fun of them. Here's one for you:

Doenitz and Ho Chi Min walk into a french bar.
The barman takes a look at them and says: "I surrender!"

The Foreign Legion does not make the SEALS look like paintball players, that is ridiculous in the extreme. No one makes the SEALS look like paintball players!

+1 sort of, I know a Seal that would beg to differ.

But historicaly thier not %100 French.
France pretty much hired mercenaries from other countries and gave their convicts the option to join as long as they would leave the country, and called it the Foreign Legion.

But yes, they are hardcore.

It would depend on the era of the FFL you are comparing today's seals against. The bad old days of African and Middle Eastern Occupations prior to WWII was a tough as it comes in terms of living conditions. Todays SEALS get it relatively easy by comparison. Try reading With the Foreign Legion in Syria by John Harvey to see why. No firkkin ice cream machines for those boys.
