A Spanish soldier of the Special Operations Command (MOE) dies due to an accident

On Thursday, October 19, Soldier Iván Mejuto Rodríguez died in an accident in Langa de Duero (Soria), when the truck he was driving, a Specific Tractor Vehicle ( VET) Iveco-Pegaso M.250.37WM of 10 tons, "left the road, for unknown reasons, and fell down a slope about five meters high", when they returned to their base after participating in the Gamma Azor 23 exercise, carried out at the CENAD San Gregorio in Zaragoza, according to the Army. The deceased soldier belonged to the Field Artillery Group VII (GACA VII) of the BRILAT, based in Figueirido (Pontevedra).

The Spanish Army indicated a week ago that due to the same accident, Sergeant Molina, assigned to the same unit, was hospitalized in the University Hospital of Burgos. Sadly, this afternoon the Spanish Army has announced the death of Sergeant Raúl Molina Descalzo. He was 24 years old and served in the GACA VII of the BRILAT, like Soldier Iván Mejuto who died a week ago.

My condolences to the family and comrades of the deceased sergeant.

Give Lord eternal rest. Let perpetual light shine upon him. Rest in peace.

Honor demanded and they obeyed,
Duty required it and they complied with it;
With their blood the company was signed
With their efforts they made the country great.

They were big and strong, because they were
Faithful to the oath they swore.
That's why they fought like brave men,
And they died like heroes.

Dying for the country was his destiny,
Love Spain its eternal passion,
Serve in the Armies his vocation and fate.

They did not want to serve another Flag,
They did not want to walk another path,
They didn't know how to live any other way.
