The 73rd National Defence Policy Session (POLDEF) closed on 11 June 2021 at the École Militaire. The day was marked by the election of the session chairman: the lucky man elected was Stéphane DARRACQ, who, together with the members of his committee, will continue in the future the strong relationships forged between the auditors throughout this year, which has been made difficult by the Covid context.
After the closing address by Lieutenant General Patrick DESTREMAU, Director of the IHEDN, the traditional ceremony of awarding diplomas to the auditors took place in the Foch amphitheatre, followed by the traditional photo of the session in the courtyard of honour.
The day ended with a cocktail reception in the Salon des Maréchaux at the École Militaire, the last opportunity for the participants to get together and exchange ideas.
