Why the symbol of the dove?
The image of the dove carries a message of peace and freedom. It naturally goes with Birdpex 7 and at the same time contributes to the commemoration of 1914. Peace, friendship and much more.
The commémoration of 1914 must have a genealogical and educational function.
In 2014, France will be the world's stage. All citizens of the belligerent countries will remember and will visit the scenes of battles, cemeteries. Canadians will go to Vimy, the Americans at St. Mihiel, the Australians and the British on the Somme to name a few, and come across our German friends, Belgian, Portuguese, Italian, Russian ...
In 2014, France, the country of conflict, must speak to the world. As well as itself.
