Chasseurs Alpins - Video's
Two video's related to the Chasseurs Alpins, both nicely showing their Tarte.
This first video is of a proud daughter of a Chasseur and later Legionnaire, showing both berets.
The second video is of the takeover of the Kapisi Region in Afghanistan by the Chasseurs Alpins from the Régiment d'Infanterie de Marine. An interesting comparison between extremely small, and extremely large diameter berets.
Interesting to observe: The berets of the RPIMa are not only quite small in diameter, but also worn very high on the head. With the Chaseeur, there is not one standardized way to wear the tarte. Everyone seems to do as it pleases him, as long as the fold is to the left.
