4th December is the feast day of Saint Barbara. This year, at NRDC-ITA, this celebration represents a very special event. In fact, for the first time, as well as Artillerymen and Sappers, also Sailors representing the maritime component of the HQ took part to the event. NRDC-ITA recently reached the full operational capability as a Joint command, and international representatives of the various Armed Forces from 12 different Nations are currently serving in the “Ugo Mara” barracks. We associate Saint Barbara commitment and courage with the qualities of those who have, over the centuries, served with responsibility for international safety and security, under commonly shared values and under every flag.
