Description de la collectivit\u00e9 : <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Marathon est une ville de 3\u202f300\u202fhabitants situ\u00e9e sur la rive nord du lac Sup\u00e9rieur. Son slogan \u00ab\u202fB\u00e2tie sur le papier et rehauss\u00e9e d\u2019or\u202f\u00bb (traduction libre de \u00ab\u202fbuilt on paper and laced with gold\u202f\u00bb) refl\u00e8te l\u2019\u00e9poque o\u00f9 l\u2019\u00e9conomie de la ville reposait sur les usines de p\u00e2te \u00e0 papier et les mines d\u2019or. L\u2019un de ses plus beaux attraits touristiques est Pebble\u202fBeach, une plage de galets de 2\u202fkm aux paysages panoramiques fa\u00e7onn\u00e9s par la nature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Les liens militaires de la communaut\u00e9 remontent \u00e0 la Deuxi\u00e8me Guerre mondiale, lorsque de nombreux hommes se sont engag\u00e9s dans les FAC et que plusieurs femmes ont travaill\u00e9 dans des usines de ravitaillement, tandis que d\u2019autres assuraient le bon fonctionnement de deux camps de prisonniers de guerre situ\u00e9s \u00e0 proximit\u00e9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

En 1989, la filiale\u202f183 de la L\u00e9gion royale canadienne a financ\u00e9 la cr\u00e9ation de l\u2019escadron\u202f900 des Cadets de l\u2019Aviation royale du Canada, ce qui a permis \u00e0 un plus grand nombre de jeunes de la ville de s\u2019engager dans l\u2019arm\u00e9e. Outre ces cadets inspirants, la ville est aussi tr\u00e8s fi\u00e8re de ses 13\u202fv\u00e9t\u00e9rans autochtones qui ont servi pendant le conflit en Afghanistan. Les plus hauts grad\u00e9s de ce groupe \u00e9taient le major g\u00e9n\u00e9ral Omer\u202fLavoie, les adjudants-chefs Lewis\u202fLavoie et Michael\u202fHamilton, et l\u2019adjudant ma\u00eetre Richard\u202fCooper. Finalement, deux civils ont \u00e9galement exerc\u00e9 des fonctions sp\u00e9cialis\u00e9es \u00e0 la base a\u00e9rienne de Kandahar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Souhaitant rendre hommage \u00e0 ces citoyens de Marathon et renforcer les liens de la communaut\u00e9 avec les v\u00e9t\u00e9rans contemporains, la filiale\u202f183 de la L\u00e9gion royale canadienne s\u2019est unie \u00e0 l\u2019H\u00f4tel de Ville pour am\u00e9nager une place des v\u00e9t\u00e9rans bien en vue et y \u00e9riger un monument du VBL\u202fIII. Le nouveau monument fera partie int\u00e9grante des futures c\u00e9r\u00e9monies du jour du Souvenir et servira d\u2019outil p\u00e9dagogique pour les cadets ainsi que les g\u00e9n\u00e9rations futures, afin de les sensibiliser au co\u00fbt de la libert\u00e9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
