Anniversary of the landing of the Granma yacht and the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Nicaragua

Managua, Dec 3 (RHC) During a ceremony held last night for the 66th anniversary of the landing of the Granma yacht and the day of the Revolutionary Armed Forces (FAR), the defense attaché of the Cuban embassy in this Central American nation, Ernesto Martinez, recalled that the landing of the 82 expeditionaries of the Granma (1956) commanded by Fidel Castro, marked the birth of the Rebel Army and its successor FAR.

 

At the ceremony attended by members of the diplomatic corps accredited in Managua, as well as military, naval, and air attachés from several countries, Martinez recalled the difficult journey of those fighters.

 

The military officer evoked a thought of the historic leader of the Cuban Revolution, Fidel Castro when he said "the new homeland emerged free, beautiful, powerful and invincible from the victorious weapons of the Rebel Army ".

 

Referring to the FAR's combat preparation, he affirmed that the institution assumes it creatively, and in times of limitations develops tactical procedures, which allow it to oppose forces superior in men and war resources.

 

Martínez alluded to the strengthening of relations between the Nicaraguan Army and the FAR, to increase preparedness and response capacity in the face of any adversity.

 

Likewise, he highlighted the solidarity of friendly countries in a complex year in which accidents, fires, hurricanes, and the economic, commercial, and financial blockade imposed by the United States on Cuba, once again tested the strength of the Cuban nation.

 

The activity was presided over by the inspector general of the Nicaraguan Army, Major General Marvin Elías Corrales, and the Minister of Defense of this Central American nation, Rosa Adelina Barahona, among other high-ranking officials. (Source: PL)
