From March 29 to April 1, five training ships from the French Navy will stop in Bordeaux. The ships are celebrating their fortieth anniversary this year.

The event will be an opportunity to meet “trainees from the eight PMM centers in the middle of their training and to allow exchanges with active military personnel and former sailors,” adds the Navy. Each year, “nearly 3,300 trainees discover the profession of sailor,’ says the Navy’s personnel management.
