The National Paratroopers Association names a course after Alexander Prokhorenko

(To Giampiero Venturi)

The National Parachutists Association of Italy is the tread and could not be otherwise.

At the initiative of the president of the section of Rome, Adriano Tocchi (pictured below), the 161 ° course for empowering the launch with hemispheric parachute will be titled to Alexander Prokhorenko, the parachutist acquiring Russian special forces that last March 24, in the recapture phases of Palmira in Syria, he chose to die in order to accomplish his mission and preserve the honor of uniform and homeland.

The course will start in September at the Folgore Gym in Via Livorno in Rome, under the meticulous supervision of the technical director "Mimmo" Aloi.

After 10 weeks including physical training and theoretical lessons, other kids will have the honor of wearing the amaranth beret. This time, however, they will reach the qualification (issued by the Association together with the Folgore Brigade) paying homage to a non-Italian hero, the first time in the history of the ANPd'I. 

Adriano Tocchi's initiative will make noise not only in Italy.

The choice of the president, as always a forerunner and courageous, once again lays bare the soul of an association that goes beyond simple institutional tasks. In addition to forging new young people by introducing them to the world of aviolanci, he continues to align the characters of the members with transversal and immortal values ​​which are objectively felt the need. The ANPd'I once again shows farsightedness, in a historical moment in which to stand out and not give in to universal reasons seems the only way to remain standing.

Etsi mortuus urit, as the logo of the ANPd'I Roma says, it is not a title, it is not a motto, it is not smoke to be attached to a rhetorical graphic. This time we really look beyond. Online Defense will return to the topic in detail.
