    The Friends of American Veterans association is proud to have largely contributed throughout the years in recognizing and honoring the memory of American soldiers. Following in the path blazed by Madame Simone RENAUD, our founder, the association works each year to express their gratitude, admiration and friendship. We must never forget those young Americans, most of whom aged 20 years old or younger, who gave their lives for our liberty. Each year, we are honored to host veterans and their families.
