“Engage they said!” It’s done. “Under the leadership of its Defense Liaison Committee, the MEDEF (Mouvement des entreprises de France) worked with the armies on a Manifesto project called ProMilès, aimed at promoting and encouraging the establishment of direct links between companies and military units at the local or regional level in order to contribute to the development of national cohesion.” About MEDEF.
Translation: By their signature, local companies undertake to create even more bridges between them and the various army corps. Create partnerships, carry out sponsorship actions, show everyone’s know-how, facilitate the hiring of retired soldiers who are “rigorous, committed, loyal, efficient, resilient elements. Without these skills being exclusive to our businesses, smiles Colonel Bertrand Coupez, military delegate of the Alpes-Maritimes, delighted with such a commitment on the territory. Signing is a first step, what is essential is to build together.” He thanks the UPE 06 and more particularly Pierre Ippolito its president “for his incredible commitment and the civic appeal made to all members”. Indeed, 73 signatories only in the Alpes-Maritimes department is a national record. “I wanted our department to be the driving force behind the signing of this manifesto, intervenes Pierre Ippolito. International context obliges, the links between the company and the Army must be strengthened, at all levels and our companies can play an important role by supporting our local military forces.
Each company has affixed its signature. Nice Côte d’Azur airports, Air France, Taboni firm, Ragni Group, STME, Electronie, Enedis, Michel Tschann, etc., all sectors combined.
President of UPE 06 to quote La Fayette [dans le but unique de sa vie] to illustrate this mutual commitment: “The well-being of all and freedom everywhere.”
