HE Mr. GD. Mr. Rafael Roldán Tudela, new COMGEIM
The Commander General of the Marine Corps Rafael Roldán Tudela was born in Villacarrillo (Jaén) on February 22, 1961. He entered the Navy in 1980 and received his Lieutenant commission in 1985. In that same year he was assigned as Section Chief of Rifles to the Tercio de Armada, a Unit to which he has been linked for most of his career.
A Marine at the head of the Fleet.
The Commander General of the Marine Infantry, Division General, Mr. Antonio Planells Palau is, since last February 11, Admiral of the Fleet (ALFLOT). A position that he assumes on an interim basis, until the new ALFLOT is appointed, who would come to replace Admiral Antonio Martorell, appointed Admiral Chief of Staff of the Navy (AJEMA) this Tuesday. In this way, the pieces continue to move in the top leadership of the Armed Forces. It should be remembered that Admiral Martorell replaces Admiral Teodoro Lo pez Calderon as AJEMA, who was promoted to Chief of Defense Staff (JEMAD) a little over two weeks ago, following the resignation of Air Force General Miguel Angel Villarroya as a result of the controversy over the vaccination of the military. Assuming this position, General Planells currently holds three positions of maximum responsibility. The interim Fleet Admiral joins those who already served as Commander General of the Marine Corps (COMGEIM) and Commander of the European Union's 'Atalanta' operation, which combats piracy in the Indian Ocean. This last position will pass next February 19 to Vice Admiral Eugenio Díaz del Río.
10 years since the foundation of AVIME 1537.
The definitive charter of our association was signed on May 30, 2010.
But AVIME 1537 was actually founded between January and February of that same year.
2010, when a couple of veteran Marines decided to create it.
For this, it was essential to gather a minimum of founding partners, so
Several acquaintances were invited to be part of the project.
Now
We have been almost 12 years, with the illusion of being able to continue forward with desire
to work for veterans.
CORONA VIRUS COVID-19, and the collaboration of AVIME 1537
Being aware of the current needs, and of the shortage of material, since March 22, our association has started a fundraising campaign among its partners to donate them to the Military Emergency Unit (UME) of 33 backpacks fumigators with capacity for 16 liters each. The delivery was made at the Torrejón de Ardoz Air Base, as agreed with the Commander of the HQ UME J-14 (Logistics section), and the transport of the material will be managed by the distributor of the fumigation backpacks.
