MC will defend in the Plenary the award of the Cartagena Gold Medal to the Antiaircraft Artillery Regiment n ° 73 (29/04/2018)

The Municipal Group MC Cartagena will present a motion, during the next plenary session to be held in May, to reiterate its willingness to promote the award of the municipality's Gold Medal to the Antiaircraft Artillery Regiment No. 73 (RAAA 73).

It should be noted that at the meeting of the Board of Speakers prior to the Plenary last November, the spokesman for the Cartagena training, José López, transferred to the rest of the groups of the corporation the intention to advance in this recognition, without having known no progress.

The announcement of MC has been made by López, who recalled "the remarkable degree of rooting of the Unit in the municipality, as well as its continued and great participation in the construction of the present of Cartagena and its District".

A relationship collected in the Historical Museum Miilitar de Cartagena that collects the history of the Artillery and units settled in the city from the fifteenth century to the present.

At this point, it should be added that, from his responsibilities in the Mayor's Office, López has strengthened and strengthened relations between the City Council and the Regiment, highlighting the Unit's excellent predisposition to collaborate in cultural events.

For example, in the homage to Madrid novelist, Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra, on the fourth centenary of the death of the writer (April 1, 2016).

That day a battery of the Antiaircraft Artillery Regiment 73 of the Army participated, under the command of the military commander, Colonel José Luis Carbonell.

Another remarkable initiative has been the embellishment of the back part of the Artillery Park with the installation of explanatory panels that reflect the evolution of the emblematic building.

Contributions and involvement in the municipality

Subsequently, José López has listed some of the reasons that support the candidacy, based "on contributions as significant as the Military Museum located in the Artillery Park, coordination with the Municipal Archive to facilitate the knowledge of an indispensable part of our history, or his great contribution to the Sport through the Cross of the Artillery, probably the test of greater repercussion of the regional calendar as far as the popular sport and the number of participants ".

The spokesman of MC Cartagena has influenced other initiatives that delve into the degree of involvement of the regiment in the municipality.

"They have excelled in their solidarity, participating in a multitude of charitable and protective activities with the most disadvantaged, theirs is a door that always opens," he explained.

The relationship of RAAA 73 with Cartagena does not end there.

At this point, the leader of the Cartagena formation recalled the involvement of the Unit in festivities of special significance, "our Holy Week, for example, through the Departure of San Juan from the Artillery Park and Santiago from the military Government, or the already memorable participation of the Artillery Picket. "

López has continued his intervention pondering unquestionable merits, "as the defense artillery of Cartagena, its batteries of coast, in addition to the common feeling that unites Cartagena to feel protected by the Artillery since time immemorial, and that give continuity to a maintained and enhanced linkage "

The councilor of the Cartagena training has concluded adding that "the important social work done deserves an institutional recognition, hopefully the rest of the groups respond with sensitivity and gratitude towards who goes far beyond their obligations, contributing to transmit principles that forge a society best".

RAAA 73

The RAAA 73 is one of the Antiaircraft Artillery Regimes of the Army, dependent on the Antiaircraft Artillery Command of the Land Force.

In our city (quartering of Tentegorra) it is based its Main Plan of Command, the Aspide Group and the Nasams Group.

As every year, the Unit will celebrate, next Wednesday, the Military Act in commemoration of May 2, 1808. It will take place in the Port of Cartagena (near the Royal Scale, 12:00 hours).

A date to recall the role of Cartagena in the deed of May 2 and the events unleashed since then.

It was the first city to create the General Board of Local Government (May 23), maintaining its autonomy and away from the domination of Napoleon.

Thus, in the delicate context, generated by the abdications of Bayonne by Charles IV and Ferdinand VII in favor of Napoleon, triggers of the War of Independence, Cartagena once again became an irreducible strong surviving the ups and downs of an unstable country .
