Mattarella “Alpini custodians of a noble tradition of loyalty and courage”

ROMA (ITALPRESS) – The President of the Republic, Sergio Mattarella, sent to the President of the Alpine National Association, Sebastiano Favero, a message on the occasion of the 97th national assembly. “The 97th national assembly of the Alpini, gathered in the historic city of Genoa, will renew the indissoluble bond that unites the Black Pennes to the country. Keepers of a noble tradition of loyalty and courage that animates the units in service, members of excellence of the Army engaged in international missions to ensure stability and in crisis areas, the abandoned mountaineers, gathered in the ANA, deep in numerous volunteer activities and Civil Protection the values of solidarity that characterize them. To the sodalicy comes the appreciation of the Republic for the committed, precious resource and contribution to the life of the whole community. On this feast day, the thought goes to those who, among the Alpini, “have gone on”. The Labaro of the Association, witness of the value of those who have fallen in the fulfillment of duty, sacrificing life for the ideals of Fatherland’s love, represents them all. To all the convents, I express the wishes of a full success of the event, in the testimony of the feelings of honor and sense of duty that are their own”.

“The Adunata degli Alpini is the moment when a large family finds itself, in the memory of those who are no longer there, in the pride of what it represents and in the sense of belonging that unites different generations under the same hat with the black pen. I’m a Alpino. I was during my lever service, and I’m in it. But first, I’m Alpini’s son and grandson. I grew up breathing those values without need to be explained: I saw them in gestures, in silence, in the sense of duty, in the ability to always be, without clamor. This is the strength of the Alpini: an authentic fraternity, born in difficulties and never turns out. A community that does not need so many words, because it is recognized in a glance, in a handshake, in that simple, powerful: Present”. He writes it in a message on the occasion of the 97th Adunata degli Alpini of the Italian Army, the Minister of Defense, Guido Crosetto.

“Time, dedication and spirit of service: legacy that cross generations. In Genoa, for 97 Adunata degli Alpini, we celebrate women and men who have made the duty and solidarity a vocation. To them our gratitude and our esteem.” He writes on his Facebook profile the president of the Senate, Ignazio LaRussia.
