French Brig. Gen. Jean-Pierre Fague, deputy commanding general for the 3rd Infantry Division, speaks during a Bastille Day commemoration, July 14, 2022, at the Alwyn Cashe Memorial Garden on Fort Stewart, Georgia. Bastille Day is the public holiday celebrating the fall of the prison Bastille in France. Fague joined the 3rd ID in July 2021 through the U.S. Army’s Military Personnel Exchange Program, a program designed to strengthen bonds of friendship, understanding, and interoperability between countries and their respective militaries. The 3rd ID, nicknamed the “Rock of the Marne,” has a long history with France, and earned its name from its immortal stand against a vicious German offensive in defense of Paris during the Second Battle of the Marne.
