This traditional celebration refers to the saint known as the protector of firefighters.
The firefighters of the Nice06 company gathered at the main rescue center at the Magnan barracks to celebrate Saint Barbara in the presence of high-ranking officials.
Nearly 70 distinctions were awarded to congratulate and honor the commitment and daring spirit shown during the “daily battles, often in difficult conditions.”
During his speech, Eric Ciotti expressed his support for the granting of the “fire bonus” requested by the firefighters.
Consistent with his favorite theme, “authority,” he reiterated that he will continue to demand mandatory sentences for those who attack our firefighters.
