French Foreign Legion



REP

    (Regiment Etranger de Parachutists) is the elite airborne/air-assault unit of the French Foreign Legion. It is the most elite of the nine regiments of the legion. In the late 1960s, 2.REP was reorganized from a standard airborne infantry regiment into a rapid deployment air commando regiment which it continues to this day.

The regiment is divided into specialized companies, each of which is specially trained in a particular form of combat. Each company maintains a strong cadre of qualified specialists, and there is much cross-trainin between companies. The various companies that make up the 2.REP are:

CCS (HQ Company) - HQ, Administration, Signals, Repair, Medic and supply platoons
CEA (Recce & Support Company) - includes Commandos de Renseignments et d'Action dans la Profondeur; a 'special forces' unit made up of pathfinder parachutists skilled in intelligence gathering and other missions behind enemy lines.
1 CIE - specialists at night combat, anti-tank and urban combat
2 CIE - specialists at mountain warfare
3 CIE - specialists at amphibious warfare
4 CIE - specialists at demolition/sabotage and sniping
Personal Weapons:
PA-15 9mm automatic pistol
H&K MP-5SD 9mm submachine gun (CEA Recce Company and 1 CIE Urban Combat Company)
FAMAS 5.56mm assault rifle
FR F2 7.62mm bolt-action sniper rifle
