Excerpt from The Link, Vol. 8: October-November, 1950 As I said, trading sugar and salt for rugs, dates, and an occasional piece of ivory is not the most exciting life and I jumped at the Opportunity to do some summer training. The only question was, where would I find Marines in this part of the world? Well, to make a long story a bit shorter, I wrote to the Marine Corps telling them that there were no Marine units close enough for me to serve with. I asked if it would be okay with them if I did my training with the French Foreign Legion. They agreed and sent me orders to report at once to the garri son at Fort Croix de Crowe. Since the Fort is located only a short distance from the town where I had set up my business this was simple enough.
