Description
291 French and Swiss soldiers, who died for France during the First World War, reenter the collective memory as their names are engraved on two steles attached to the Franco-Swiss war memorial in Geneva. The list of those "forgotten by history" - born in Geneva or its region, found and identified by the association Mémoires after extensive research in the archives - was unveiled in the presence of the French Minister of Industry, Marc Ferracci.
