Today we learned the sad news of the death of a soldier of the Spanish Army in the city of Ceuta.<\/p>\n

The deceased is Legionnaire Kevin Parra Mej\u00eda<\/strong>, a member of the 2nd Legion Tercio \"Duque de Alba\". The Spanish Army has reported<\/a>: \"During a physical training session, he fainted<\/strong> and was immediately evacuated by ambulance to the University Hospital of Ceuta, where he later died.\"<\/em><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

According to El Faro de Ceuta<\/a>, the deceased was a native of Bolivia and had recently joined the Legion<\/strong>. He died serving Spain, and that deserves the utmost respect.<\/p>\n

My deepest condolences to the family and comrades of the deceased soldier.<\/strong> Grant him eternal rest, O Lord. Let perpetual light shine upon him. Rest in peace.<\/p>\n

Honor demanded and they obeyed,
\nDuty required it and they complied with it;
\nWith their blood the company was signed
\nWith their efforts they made the country great.<\/p>\n

They were big and strong, because they were
\nFaithful to the oath they swore.
\nThat's why they fought like brave men,
\nAnd they died like heroes.<\/p>\n

Dying for the country was his destiny,
\nLove Spain its eternal passion,
\nServe in the Armies his vocation and fate.<\/p>\n

They did not want to serve another Flag,
\nThey did not want to walk another path,
\nThey didn't know how to live any other way.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
