Le lieutenant Laverdure n’est plus

5 septembre 2012 – 15:11 Ayant souvent joué les seconds rôles au cinéma, notamment dans la série des “gendarmes de Saint-Tropez”, le comédien Christian Marin est décédé ce 5 septembre, à Paris, à l’âge de 83 ans.
Pour les passionnés d’aviation, Christian Marin est avant tout le lieutenant Ernest Laverdure, le pilote de chasse fantasque qu’il interpréta dans la série désormais culte “Les Chevaliers du ciel”, aux côtés de Jacques Santi, qui, disparu en 1988, incarna le lieutenant Michel Tangy.
Bien qu’ayant tenu, par la suite, des rôles très éloignés de celui du lieutenant Laverdure, Christian Marin avait conservé des liens avec l’armée de l’Air, et, plus généralement, l’aviation militaire.

Space : Neil Armstrong, who stood on moon's Sea of Tranquility, to be buried at sea

Forwarded message From: Dirk De Quick

September 6, 2012 — The late astronaut Neil Armstrong, first man to step on the moon, will be buried at sea, NASA has confirmed.

Armstrong, who died Aug. 25 at age 82, was remembered during a private family memorial service held in Cincinnati last week. NASA has scheduled a public memorial service to be held Sept. 13 at Washington National Cathedral.

The date and details of the first moonwalker's interment at sea have not been announced.

The first U.S. civilian to orbit the Earth, Armstrong served as a naval aviator for three years from 1949 to 1952 prior to his resignation from the U.S. Navy before joining NASA as a research pilot and astronaut. The Navy will perform the committal ceremony.

According to the Navy, the standard ceremony for burial at sea is led by either a chaplain of the appropriate faith, the ship's commanding officer or an officer designated by him or her. The ceremony includes a three volley (rifle) salute and the playing of Taps.

NASA's Sept. 13 public memorial service in Washington, D.C. will bring together dignitaries, community and political leaders, members of Armstrong's family and members of the NASA family, including current and former astronauts, to pay their respects to Armstrong.

The ceremony, which will include remarks by NASA chief Charles Bolden, will be shown live on the space agency's television channel and streamed through its website. Very limited public seating is available at National Cathedral on a first-come, first-served basis, with advance reservation.

France and Belgium Discuss A400M Multinational Unit

French Defense Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian met his Belgian counterpart, Pieter De Crem, in Brusselson September 3 to discuss greater cooperation between their two countries, including the creation of a multinational A400M unit. Based at Brussels military airport, Melsbroek, the unit would be composed of the seven Belgian and one Luxembourg A400Ms, plus two each from France and Germany.
 The two ministers also discussed the possibility of joint training of pilots of the NH90 helicopter being acquired by both countries. France and Belgium intend to extend their already-existing cooperation on pilot training to other armed services.
Another area of cooperation discussed by the two ministers was non-combatant evacuation operations requiring the deployment of special forces.
