Heir to the traditions of the [[paratrooper]]s of the [[Special Air Service]] of [[Free France]] and [[French Indochina]], the regiment is the only French unit in mainland France to use the motto ''{{lang|fr|Qui ose gagne'gagn}}', translated from the [[British Army]] [[Special Air Service|SAS]] motto ''Who Dares Wins''.<ref>The 2nd R.P.I.Ma, an overseas regiment of the Forces armées of the southern zone of the Indian Ocean (FAZSOI) based on [[La Réunion]], also uses this motto on its regimental insignia.</ref>
