Legionnaire's Journey

At the age of 27, Hungarian Leslie Aparvary was sold to the French Foreign Legion for 600 francs and began a two-year odyssey with what has been called the world's toughest army where the value of a life is tantamount to zero. Much of his enlistment was spent fighting in Indochina (Vietnam). Leslie's journal is a gripping account of a Hungarian youth driven away by persecution and deprived of a home and country.
