First days of this month of October 2022 …

First days of another month of October for them.

A moved thought for all of this Patrol, the French Patrol, the French “ Top Gun” for some, or also, the more majestically and affectionately called, since already 70 years … “The Great Lady”.

First days of this month of October 2022 and coming to and : a new memorable “summer” season.

For having followed a part of this “summer” season, quite unexpectedly to be said, and in addition of being already of an emotional nature, I feel even more particularly emotional now.

And yet, I’m also sure and humble to feel and understand, that I can't imagine the emotional charge it can gather and contain, even more, and each time it happens, for all of this Patrol, all of these men and women concerned, involved.

To be part of the French Patrol is often only a parenthesis, a chapter of their careers, a chapter like no other one chapter, before and after.

Even more, it is and will forever be, yesterday, today, tomorrow, an or the : “Adventure of a Lifetime”.

Also often, for a lot of them, for long, very long, often since their childhood, it was and it remains, a dream.
