The matter that embodies the national spirit and patriotism of the staunch Egyptians who made, and shall forever make, sacrifices in order to defend the country's security and safety throughout our long history, those patriots who added weighty tomes of glory and pride to our national registries, and shall always be a source of pride for the future generations of Egypt.
The association director highlighted the Armed Forces' keenness to provide all aspects of health, sports, social and technical care to its members – the martyrs' families and operations wounded warriors – in recognition of their heroic acts and in appreciation of their sacrifices made to forever keep Egypt's flag up and high.
