Swiss-French Non-Commisioned Officers Day
Explanation:
Sous-officier seems to be 'non-commissioned officers' (see first link,) and the most concise translation of 'Romande' is unfortunately still 'Swiss-French.'
That being said, I could only find a couple examples of this term (see second link.)

Pardon my typo, there should of course be two 's's in 'commissioned.'

Romance Enlisted Day


Explanation:
Enlisted ranks are all ranks below commissioned officers. I believe the English adjective for Romande is Romance.
