ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Chasseurs Alpins

Chasseurs alpins are a special type of soldiers who live and work in the mountains, kind of like superheroes who protect the snowy peaks! They wear special uniforms that help them blend in with their surroundings and keep them warm and dry.

These soldiers have to be really good at climbing and walking in steep and snowy terrain, which is why they are called "chasseurs," which is French for hunters. They also have special weapons and tools that help them survive in the mountains and defend themselves if they need to.

Chasseurs alpins are a very important part of the French army, because they can go places that other soldiers can't. They are trained to work in harsh weather conditions, and help people who are lost or stranded in the mountains. They are like a very strong and brave group of mountaineers who help keep everyone safe and protected!
