Clad in their distinctive military uniforms, these brave soldiers dominate the scene as they traverse down the bustling street. The onlookers lining both sides of the road are captivated by this display of power and discipline. Sidi Bel Abbes serves as a significant backdrop for this parade; it was not only home to the French Foreign Legion headquarters from 1931 to 1961 but also witnessed numerous historical events during that period.
