Getting tired of waiting, with some other guys, they left the fort. After some adventures they arrived in Morocco and delivered to the authorities. From there, Lucky was send to Algeria and the heavy instruction of that army. Once the instruction finished he was send to an operating unit and then another. Most of the time the Legionnairs were occupied by chasing rebels through the country. Several times wounded and decorated, he did not agree with some superior officer and was jailed. After his punishment he refused to end his service as ordinary soldier and was kicked out of the forces.
