Heh.

Good find.
All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

lol. I've seen footage of the Indian / Pakistani boarder guards thing before, and its pretty mind boggling - I would think that groinal strain must be high on the list of injuries.

The Legion Etrangere guys are, of course, pioneers, and follow the tradition of the French army from Napoleonic times - a bushy beard, leather apron and big chopper being SOP.

I've seen some of the footage to and for some reason is quite mesmerizing.  I wonder what the shelf life is for the guards who perform that ritual due to the above stated groinal strain and I am sure leg and foot injuries.

I have seen the legionairres before of course and I think they are rather cool.
The Carabinieri however do not match my picture of Italian cops.  I remember them
more like... hat crooked, greasy hair, cigarette dangling from mouth, sidearm dangling from holster,
food stains on shirt which is not tucked in and a listless hungry look.
