The 22nd Marching Regiment of Foreign Volunteers (French: 22e Régiment de marche de volontaires étranger, 22e RMVE) was a regiment of the French Foreign Legion formed from expatriates living in France at the outbreak of World War II.

The 22nd RMVE resisted the German invasion of France in 1940, seeing major action along the Somme during the month of June.

In Fresnes, the 6th Company under Lieutenant Rigal held out through 25 hours of continuous combat, the men surrendering only after they had exhausted their ammunition.

Captain Guy Pascier de Franclieu, commander of the regiment's 3rd Battalion, held out for another 3 hours, again ordering a surrender only when ammunition was exhausted.
