Lebanon Marks 74th Army Day

Lebanon marks on Thursday the 74th anniversary of the founding of its military forces.
The ceremony is held in the Fayadieh Military Academy, and takes place in the presence of President Michel Aoun, Speaker Nabih Berri and Prime Minister Saad Hariri.
Aoun laid a wreath at the memorial statue of the Lebanese Army martyrs.
The central Army Day ceremony will also see the graduation of several cadet officers and their promotion to the rank of lieutenant.

It is the one that protected us on May 7th, the one that stood back while hezbollah put the 80 so called isis on air conditioned buses, the one that does not allow 150 illegal border crossings used for smuggling and spreading terror, the one that controls the port and airport.
