On Wednesday morning, at the Plaza de Armas of the 6th Blandengues Tank Cavalry Regiment, mayor Francisco Azcué participated in the ceremony for the 214th anniversary of the Argentine Army.
During the ceremony, it was highlighted that the creation of the Argentine Army took place just four days after May 25th, and since then it has been composed of men and women willing to defend the Nation with courage and commitment. The important service it provides in the city of Concordia was also emphasized.
Mayor Azcué not only highlighted the important mission that the Argentine Army fulfills but also expressed gratitude for its presence in various actions within our community, such as during the recent flooding of the Uruguay River or the development of Professional Training Workshops.
“The contribution of the Regiment has been more than significant, not only by making its personnel and logistics available, but it was also the first center to receive evacuated families. We will continue with this bond, with joint actions, as it is one of the most important institutions we have in Concordia,” stated the Mayor.
For his part, Lieutenant Colonel Jorge Andrés Camarino, Chief of the local Regiment, stressed that although “the main mission is to prepare for war as an Armed Force of the Nation, it is also our mission to support the community in case of crisis, as was the case with the flood, by collaborating and fulfilling our duty.”
Present were the Federal Judge of Concordia Analía Ramponi; the Municipal Secretary of Health Dr. Diego Sauré; representatives of the Armed Forces and Security Forces; Malvinas veterans; intermediate institutions and the general public.
