The Fnaca (Fédération nationale des anciens combattants en Algérie, Maroc et Tunisie) branch of Astarac held its general assembly in Lagarde-Hachan, in the Gers department of southwestern France. Around sixty former service members attended the meeting, according to the local press.
The Fnaca represents veterans who served during the Algerian War and the conflicts in Morocco and Tunisia. Local branches like the one in Astarac organize annual assemblies to review activities, discuss the needs of aging members, and maintain commemorative traditions.
Lagarde-Hachan is a small commune in the Gers, a rural area where veterans' associations remain an active part of community life. The assembly provided an opportunity for members to gather and discuss the association's ongoing work.
Further details of the meeting, including any decisions taken or officials elected, were not available in the publicly accessible report.
