You are the guardians of the sovereignty, freedom and independence of the nation. You safeguard it with your blood, heroic sacrifices and your cohesion with your people. You are the safety valve and the source of reassurance," wrote President of the Republic, Michel Aoun, in the Lebanese Army's Booklet marking Lebanon's 74th Independence Day.
Praising the Army's achievements, especially its "Fajr Al-Joroud" operation, the President stressed that armies are not only triumphant by the use of weapons but through determination, faith, resilience and fortitude.
"I admit, with all sincerity, joy and pride, that this military institution has long been, and still is a point of weakness as far as my strength is concerned because it renders me emotionally biased towards it, and a point of strength because it has never let me down, even in the most difficult and cruelest of situations and stages. In every juncture, it is the point of strength of Lebanon the nation, the people and the land, especially at this difficult stage in our history," wrote the President
