The French Foreign Legion posted a tweet in German about recruitment. Nothing very much special or unusual here.

However this tweet is a response to the invitation issued by the German defence minister,Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer,to the soldiers of the Bundeswehr who were complaining about inaction and lack of deployments,to which she replied in an interview in the German newspaper "Zeit" : "If you don't like it,go to the Foreign Legion".

Not much was needed to send a message to our friends across the rhine where they can meet their desire of adventures within the ranks of the FFL.

Lol, yep nothing much happens in the German military, they already have seen enough 'action' in history (joke guys).
Joining the legion would be a good move to any Western chap looking for adventure, a home for life and support of the legion brotherhood.
