The real story is apparently
“In July 1958 the French 13e demi-brigade de Légion étrangère ( 13th Demi-Brigade of the Foreign Legion ) was on duty in Algeria (near Jebel) when they found a foal (a baby donkey) that had been abandoned and was dying of hunger.
The soldiers took pity of the animal and decided to take it back with them to their base.”
The foal couldn’t keep up with rhe soldiers and therefore had to be carried. It later became the mascot of the group.
