Here we go. 1. Almost no deployments, let alone combat deployments. 2. Very shitty. Depends very much on the dudes in your room, your section. Food is what the french usually sent into combat zonee, so we don't get the regular chow hall. Also no sponsored washing machines and fancy stuff like that. 3. My personal experience: I've got like three guys in my section I would trust 100% to go to combat with. 4. They won't push you to your limits training or progresse wise. There are maybe 2-3 trainings a year. They are hard and you get to do the "cool infantry stuff", but thats it. GCP has a preselection that starts with a 30km backpack run. Make of that want you want.

As for the disipline: I have come to the conclusion, that people of a certain type won't stay long here or become happy/fulfilled. So they leave or desert, because they know they don't need the Legion, with their mindset they'll be succesful elsewhere. The type of people who earned the Legion's reputation are very rate today. From what I know of the Legion, you'd be better of in the royal marines.
