L' Armée de la Manouvre

L' Armée de la Manouvre

The Armée de la Manouvre is the main component of French power projection on and off Earth. It is composed entirely of regular, all-volunteer soldiers from the Metropolitan Army. Whilst the Légion Étrangère and other units of the Force d' Action Rapide gain all the glory it is the Armée de la Manouvre that has born the brunt of the fighting in the Central Asian, German Reunification and Flemish Independence Wars. Additionally the Armée de la Manouvre has found large troop contributions for deployments on the Kafer Arm.

Currently the Armée de la Manouvre is massed in European France and still focused on the threat from the new German Republic. However contingency plans are underway to shift one of the Corps along the French Arm. And more may follow should the situation deteriorate further.

2^e Corps

The 2^eCorps is currently stationed in the east of France deterring any further German hostilities. The 1e and 12e DM are deployed in rotation up to the frontier, and the Corps liases closely with footborne patrols from the Division's d' Infanterie that also rotate through the zone.
