    Distinguish2 the Coalition units the King s German Legion and the Russian German Legion The Germanic Legion was a military unit of the French Revolutionary Wars , theoretically made up of German volunteers fighting under French command. It was set up in September 1792 and dissolved on 22 June 1793. History The idea of forming an army corps from pro French Revolution Revolutionary German volunteers was born in summer 1792. It was most probably the example of the Belgian Legion l gion des Belges and Belgian Legion l gion des Li geois unis which gave the Prussian Jean Baptiste Cloots Anachasis Cloots and Saxon Saiffert, both resident in Paris, the idea of such a Legion, at first to be called a Prussian Legion then a Vandal Legion. It rapidly hit recruitment problems, however, since there few expatriate Germans in France were in favour of the Revolution. Cloots thus had the idea of recruiting deserters from the Austrian and Prussian armies. A decree of the Legislative Assembly France Legislative Assembly of August 1792 granted such deserters a pension for life of 100 livres should they join the unit. Cloots and his military adjutants colonels Dambach and van Hayden, however, felt the Germanic Legion must not just become a refuge for deserters but the core of future German liberty . Saiffert ... libres comme les Fran ais .

Frank Duff subsequently laid down the system of the Legion in the Handbook of the Legion of Mary in 1928. The Legion of Mary soon spread from Ireland to other countries and continents. At first, the Legion often met with mistrust due to its dedication to lay apostolate which was unusual for the time. Only after Pope Pius XI expressed praise for the Legion in 1931, could such mistrust be quelled. Most prominent for spreading the Legion was the Irish legionary Edel Mary Quinn for her activities in Africa during the 1930s and 40s.
