2008 - August 21. The nation pays tribute to ten French soldiers killed in Afghanistan :
Eternal Glory to the Brave.
"Snow is falling down on this glorious land
Colours fading, turning into white again
To fallenn heroes angels sing, they cry their winter tears
Endless mourning days will turn to years
So this is goodbye, I take leave of you
Spread your wings and you will fly away now, fly away
Now
Nothing on this earth stays forever
But none of your deeds were in vain
Deep in our hearts you will live again
You're gone to the home of the brave..."
