Check out Evan Mcgormans book about the Legion its good. Next I would say you need to do chinups running, hiking, push ups sit ups and optionally swimming(if you can't swim they'll teach you.) You do not need to learn french before hand they'll teach you. Seriously read that book though its the best book ive found

Hey bro, it sounds like it was most likely a sterile Marathon watch. When the watches are "sterile" they take off most of the logos and branding. Depending on the type of watch it could have been the Marathon General Purpose model or possibly the Navigator or Aviation. Here is a link to what I mean: https://www.amazon.com/Marathon-Sapphire-Navigator-Military-Movement/dp/B07Y2CQVPB
If by chance it wasn't Marathon like I'm thinking, it could have been Bertucci or Traser. Hope that helps!
This is probably a shitpost and a little bit offtopic, but the only guy I ever met who legitimately probably stacked bodies ended up becoming a beachbum surfer who listened to tool all day and microdosed.

100%. There are Russians, Chinese, Nepalanese, Indians and Brazilians preparing for it right now. Most West Europeans are the first to get kicked out because they're out of shape and didn't prepare for the IQ and Luc Léger tests. Some of them can't even do 5
I recommend this app, it was created by a legionnaire himself that uses this subreddit and made a thread about it. Has basic French (Will be VERY helpful SPECIALLY for a Croatian that language has nothing to do with French (I had it a little easier because I speak Portuguese and I learned the basic before going) physical plans to get in shape (that will depend on your willpower mainly, app wont change a damn thing).

Just a reminder for you to do bar exercice, running and long-run resistance. Not to say that you need to know how to swim

Try these apps. Not sure if they're exactly like the ones in the Legion but I'm sure it can't hurt to practice.
