It's interesting to listen to the accounts of the Legionnaires' increased proficiency in counterinsurgency. That kind of warfare depends on experience (and willingness to learn from it) and different skills from conventional warfare.

The Australian Infantry of the Royal Australian Regiment were the only soldiers the VC and the NVA were literally scared of. I know this was nearly 100 years later but the war kept going for the the Vietnamese!! Not to mention the Australian SAS whom the Vietnamese called "The Phantoms of the Jungle"!! A lot of the tunnels they dug then were the same used in the Vietnam war. After the Battle of Long Tan the VC and NVA were instructed to "never contact the long rifles" (the name the called us because we used the SLR or FN-FAL). Sorry way out of context here but this all led up to the Vietnam war when the Communists from China started to take over.

I did a joint exercise with them once... they were abysmally poor. To call them amateurs would be an understatement. They seemed to have not evolved in any meaningful way for generations. I felt like I was transported back to the 1960s...
