This account by an ordinary legionnaire of the legendary 13th Half Brigade of the French Foreign Legion takes the reader right into the career of these modern-day "Praetorians" caught up in the turmoil of a ruthless conflict. From the battle for Algiers, to the coup, to the return to the motherland, the author "regrets nothing" and makes no secret of the agony of his constant battles against an enemy who was a master in the art of guerrilla warfare. He lets the reader share in his adventure as a French Foreign Legionnaire.
