Patrick Lefebvre

Graduated from the French Air Force Academy in 1981, lieutenant-general (retired) Patrick Lefebvre was an airlift pilot during the first part of his career. Participating in all external operations (Chad, Cambodia, Middle East, Bosnia...), he was also commander of the Orléans-Bricy Air Force Base where he prepared the arrival of the new Atlas tactical transport aircraft (A400M). His experience is now used as part of the training of senior executives for companies interested in defence and security issues. Here, he delivers a testimony from episodes belonging to our history.
