The article discusses Lawrence Franks, a former officer in the U.S. Army's 10th Mountain Division at New York's Fort Drum, who decided to leave the Army in 2009 to join the French Foreign Legion. Topics include Franks' struggle with depression and suicidal thoughts, the U.S. Army's prosecution of Franks for conduct unbecoming an officer and desertion, and Franks' service as a legionnaire for three tours in Africa and during the French War with Al Qaeda.
