Memory of mountaineer

Mémoire de montagnard

Excellent
A l'entrée sud du parc Paul Mistral juste à coté de la vasque olympique et du monument aux déportés se dresse le monument des diables bleus en souvenir des chasseurs alpins, la troupe d'élite de l'armée française spécialisé dans les combats en montagne. Construite en 1936, la statue en bronze d'un de ses chasseurs trône fièrement au dessus d'une stèle en marbre et en dessous de l'inscription, écrite en bleu, "A la gloire des diables bleus".

Ce monument est dédié à la gloire des Diables Bleus pendant la seconde guerre mondiale. Les Diables Bleus, ainsi ont été surnommés les chasseurs alpins, sont une sorte de troupe terrestre de l'armée française, apparue sous sa forme moderne en 1888. Le soldat gigantesque de bronze qui se dresse à l'entrée du Parc Paul Mistral depuis 1936 représente une mémoire monumentale des troupes montagnardes si chères au cœur de la ville de Grenoble, troupes qui n'ont jamais été vaincues par les Allemands.
This monument is dedicated to the glory of the Blue Devils during the second world war. The Blue Devils, and were nicknamed the Alpini are a kind of land troops of the French army, which emerged in its modern form in 1888. The huge bronze soldier who stands at the entrance of Parc Paul Mistral since 1936 is a monumental memory of mountain troops so dear to the heart of the city of Grenoble, troops who were never conquered by the Germans.
