VeryMade it look like nothing. Fit lad.
He's actually a major, joined at 17 was in the 3rd company, Pink Floyd knows him as well.
He met the qualifying time for the 400 metres Olympics, his father or grandfather was the French army decathlon champion. Other than sport there wasn't much point in asking/ordering him to do anything.I like hearing those kind of things. Shows the Legion really does look after it people if they are willing to fully embrace her ethos.

Just saying

Not sure what old boy's event was, but it had something to do with running; dude could run the 2 mile (3.2k) in sub 11 minutes, even at altitude. He was a gazelle.
needs to find a squat rack ..just saying. surprised at his leg development TBH, most sprinters & 400 metres runners have more mass on their thighs. Has big arms & good lats but that´s it. Is he not the guy who did the assault course against the street jumper ?He met the qualifying time for the 400 metres Olympics, his father or grandfather was the French army decathlon champion.

yeah..thought that. not slagging him off looks a fit guy but not balanced. The Legs need more training than upper body in later years.That's him. And when he took the test it was years ago.
So he was world class athlete or close to that?
Se he was world class athlete or close to that? That's way I'm pissed when guys who are preparing for FFL come here and tell us that they can easily pull out time like that. I mean world record is 5000 m for 12:37 so it could be run much better, but let's be realistic if you can run close to that why would you need legion or any army. You can be runer and make much more money and fame.
The Marine Corps has the same, there are special athletes and Master Sergeant Gibson comes to mind, he was a wrestler and he competed in several Olympic games and world championships. We have many teams where the Marines get tasked to and that's all they do. My best Friend's brother was on the All Marine Boxing team back with the Sphinx Brothers, yep, the Sphinx brothers were Marines

Yes he's French.
My best friends brother was in the Marine Corps in the 1970s. He was on the all Marine Boxing Team with Leon and Michael Sphinx, they became world champs. Gary was a Combat Engineer, but you would not have wanted him setting demo charges.....I trained with some USMC boxers in Afghan. Was a painful lesson but very enjoyable
