In 2022, the "Armaments and Defence Economics" (AED), "Economic Defence and Security" (DSE) and "Digital Sovereignty and Cyber Security" (SNC) majors were hosted in French Guiana by the 3rd Foreign Infantry Regiment (REI). Heir to the Régiment de marche de la Légion étrangère (RMLE) created in 1915, the 3rd REI moved to French Guiana in 1973. The special ties forged during this visit were further strengthened last month when the 232nd session was held in the region, further cementing the regiment's partnership with the IHEDN.
Un livre pour le cinquantenaire du 3e REI en Guyane

The 3e REI is celebrating the fiftieth anniversary of its establishment in French Guiana this year, and has produced the following products to mark the occasion SelvaSelva, a book dedicated to the regiment and the complexity of the equatorial forest and the challenges it presents. Selva is a small word borrowed from Brazilian Portuguese that can express thanks, a negative or a question. Its multiple meanings aptly reflect the richness and diversity of the tropical forest, which is what makes the 3e REI for fifty years.

Pre-orders are open until 15 July 2023 on the Editions Pierre de Taillac website.
