I’m a veteran who looked into joining the FFL. They’re basically all special forces (even the admin) so if you aren’t ready for that level of training you’re going to fail recruitment and won’t be able to join them.

Well, you’re describing a large part of the US military. Many enlisted soldiers just joined to escape a bad situation, so they aren’t that dedicated. They certainly don’t know French, if they even know English that well.
