[b]Biography and Service History:[/b] Guy Sauvage was born in the Paris, France suburb of Evry. His father worked for the French Rail system working out of Paris. As a young man, Guy's father served in the French Army as a soldier in the 35th Infantry Regiment. Guy knew he did not want to work for the railroad and found military life to be exactly what he needed. He fit in perfectly as a soldier in the French Army. Guy enlisted at age 17after completing secondary education. He attended Infantry school and served with the 1st Infantry Regiment, 1st Mech Brigade for three years. After spending three years with a mech unit, he attended Parachute training and Special Air Service training. He discovered that he really enjoyed jumping out of an airplane. Para training was conducted at Pau, southern France. Special Air Service training involves 12 weeks of "adaptation training" and "stage commando" which separates the men from the boys. This training is physically grueling and mentally challenging. The highest attrition rate comes from Adaption training at about 75%. Once Adatption training was complete, Guy then advanced to "stage CTE RAPAS" for six months. This is the technical training involved with being a member of the 1st Paras (SAS). After 40 weeks of training, Guy was promoted to Caporal-chef de première classe. He spent one year in the 1st Para (SAS) as a Corporal 1st Class before attending the Professional NCO School, École Nationale des Sous-Officiers d’Active (ENSOA or National Active Non-Commissioned Officers National School). The ENSOA trains young NCOs for both initial (squad leader) and higher-level (platoon leader) functions. The school lasts four months. Upon completion of ENSOA, Guy was promoted to Sergent at age 22. Guy has spent the last 10 years as a member of the French SAS regiment known as 1st Parachutist Marine Infantry Regiment. During this time, he has attended Sniper School, Diving School and Pathfinder school. During the 10 years of his service in the unit, he has spent all of his time with 1st Company. As such he has performed of a Pathfinder and as a Sniper the most. He has participated in only a few clandestine operations involving underwater entry/extraction. After ten years in the Army, five years ago; Guy was promoted to Sergent-chef , his current rank.
