l- , ucybul some prayed xo . Some saw the French Foreign Legion Post at Sidi Bel Abbes After we left the Hall of Fame we headed for town where we did some shopping and then started back to Oran by bus. It was a long and tiring trip and most of us slept, leaving the drixer to his everlasting horn blowing We were escorted throughout the post by English speaking members and shown the various points of interest, the most in- teresting being their Hall of Fame which contains relics from the beginning of the Legion up to the present time. When a man dies in the Legion, his name is put in the Gold Book which contains thousands of names of men whohave fought and died for the Legion, from all nations. These books are kept in a large handcarved case, which, like the rest of the' Hall was made by the Legionnaires themselves. There is also an arsenal which contains all types of weapons captured from the enemy in the different battles they fought, ranging from poison darts and knives to modern pistols and rifles. , ft r' ji., ff, 5 , I 16 xx ' 9 f , ' 7 . ,, jd!!!
