Recruitment center in Fort de Nogent.

The Foreign Legion Recruiting Group (Шаблон:Lang-fr) is an administrative unit of the Foreign Legion responsible for recruiting volunteers from around the globe. The unit reports to the Foreign Legion Command (COMLE). The COMLE sets the annual recruitment objectives based on inputs from the French Army staff, l'Etat-Major de l'Armée de Terre (EMAT), and the initial projections of the Foreign Legion Human Resources Division (DRHLE).

The GRLE was created July 10, 2007 at Fort de Nogent, near Paris. The new unit assumed all recruiting responsibilities which had previously been assigned to the 1st Foreign Regiment's Recruitment Division.

Mission

In order to supply the Foreign Legion with the required volunteers, the Recruiting Group promotes volunteer service by targeting the world public. This work informs potential candidates and leads to a pre-selection process followed by a contract of engagement at Aubagne.

While the mission of the Foreign Legion Recruiting Group is primarily focused on recruiting; the GRLE also carried out other functions, including training and supporting missions of the French Army both in France and abroad.

Organization

The GRLE headquarters is located at Fort de Nogent, at Fontenay-sous-bois. The regimental commander supervises the Transit Company of the Foreign Legion (C.T.L.E) and the Recruiting Company of the Foreign Legion (C.R.L.E), with principal mission of:

• The support of the Foreign Legion on the R.T.I.D.F (Land Region Ile de France).

The PILE, unlike the recruiting posts of the remainder of the French Army, uses civilian services and military resources to launch activities that would attract potential candidates through expositions, mobile information trucks and other mobile information posts. The Foreign Legion only recruits in France. The Foreign Legion will not obtain permanent visas for prospective recruits to travel to France, nor finance any voyage to France.

Regimental Song

Conquérir des volontaires (Conquering Volunteers to Form Legionnaires) is the Regimental song and mission of the Foreign Legion Recruiting Group:

<poem> Conquérir des volontaires, pour en faire des légionnaires Du Groupement de Recrutement, c'est la mission Conquérir des volontaires pour en faire des légionnaires Nos Régiments frères attendent, notre moisson.

Du pays des corons A celui des santons Du pays bigouden Aux méandres du Rhin Par delà les frontières de l'hexagone Les recruteurs vont et informent Pour que flotte à tous les vents, les couleurs du fanion Que résonne notre devise « Honneur et Fidélité », Gloire à la Légion.

De tous les continents Viennent vivre autrement La Légion tend la main Espoir d'un lendemain Du G.R.L.E., ils sont le vivier Les volontaires du monde entier Pour que flotte à tous les vents, les couleurs du fanion Que résonne notre devise « Honneur et Fidélité », Gloire à la Légion.

Quitte ton ordinaire, Pour une vie d'Légionnaire Rejoints les plus vaillants Les rangs des képis blancs L'esprit de Camerone te guidera L'exemple des anciens tu suivras Pour que flotte à tous les vents, les couleurs du fanion Que résonne notre devise « Honneur et Fidélité », Gloire à la Légion. </poem>
