American Foreign Legion Hymn:
DEATH be not proud, though some have called thee
Mighty and dreadfull, for, thou art not so,
For, those, whom thou think'st, thou dost overthrow,
Die not, poore death, nor yet canst thou kill me.
From rest and sleepe, which but thy pictures bee,
Much pleasure, then from thee, much more must flow,
And soonest our best men with thee doe goe,
Rest of their bones, and soules deliverie.
Thou art slave to Fate, Chance, kings, and desperate men,
And dost with poyson, warre, and sicknesse dwell,
And poppie, or charmes can make us sleepe as well,
And better then thy stroake; why swell'st thou then;
One short sleepe past, wee wake eternally,
And death shall be no more; death, thou shalt die.
Written by John Doone

Legionnaire trainees on their way to be officers on parade in Paris, Europe, Earth [Sol]. Only humans and the eight races in the USE union can be officers in the American Legion. JUL 2044. The AFL officers still wear the ceremonial dress of the French Foreign Leion which has been passed down since the late 1800's.
I admire the Legion. I really do. They're in the shit as much as we are, sometimes more. They never complain and they keep soldiering on, no matter what. I guess thats because they come from the most oppressive regimes in the universe and are itching to prove themselves against their former oppressors. The Legion gives them a chance to fight back and live free if they survive. I'm glad their on our side, because the Legion never gives up.
USCM Gen. Logan Williams, on why he respects the Legion
Lets be honest, Americans will alway perfer to see dead aliens killed in combat instead of their own sons and daughters.
US Pres. Samantha Jones
I do it (enlist in the Legion), to become a freeman and an American.
