"They lead the way and invite you to follow" Through these moments of life captured by Victor Ferreira, you fall into step with the men of the 1er Régiment Étranger de Génie, in their daily routine as much as in training or on mission.

You cross the threshold of a highly singular unit, specialising in assault engineering and support for amphibious operations. You discover everything that makes a Foreign Legion unit so distinctive: the brotherhood of arms, the devotion to mission, the pride in work well done, and loyalty elevated to the rank of cardinal virtue. And, beyond all that, you come face to face with the sapper legionnaires — exceptional soldiers in the truest sense, for few can combine the qualities of the legionnaire with those of the combat engineer.
