Stepsons of France: Original Text

By: Wren, P. C.

A vivid picture of life in the French Foreign Legion. The sayings, the doings and adventures of those reckless soldiers make it not only a romance but a reality. Soldats de la L gion, de la L gion trang re, n'ayant pas de nation, la France est votre M re. - War-Song of the Legion. A selection of tales from Wren, including: Ten little Legionaries, A la Ninon de L'Enclos, An Officer and-a Liar, The Dead Hand, The Gift, The Deserter, Five Minutes, "Here are Ladies", The MacSnorrt, "Belz buth", The Quest, "Vengeance is Mine...", Sermons in Stones, Moonshine, The Coward of the Legion, Mahdev Rao, The Merry Liar.At the Dep t at Sidi-bel-Abb s, Sergeant-Major Suicide-Maker was a devil, but at a little frontier outpost in the desert, he was the devil, the increase in his degree being commensurate with the increase in his opportunities. When the Seventh Company of the First Battalion of the Foreign Legion of France, stationed at A nargoula in the Sahara, learned that Lieutenant Roberte was in hospital with a broken leg, it realized that, Captain d'Armenti res being absent with the Mule Company, chasing Touaregs to the south, it would be commanded for a space by Sergeant-Major Suicide-Maker-in other words by The Devil.
