The 137 new students at the General Air Academy, including six students from the United States Armed Forces, who participate in a six-month exchange, visited San Javier City Hall today where they were received in the hall Acts by the mayor of San Javier, José Miguel Luengo and part of the Municipal Corporation.
The students were accompanied by the colonel director of the AGA, Juan Pablo Sánchez de Lara, other military commanders and the chaplain Alfonso Valcárcel, in which it is his first institutional visit since his arrival at the military center where they will swear the flag on December 10.
The cadet Cristina Rodero, number one of her promotion, was in charge of giving the mayor an image of the military institution and thank on behalf of their colleagues the "warm welcome that has given us San Javier."
The mayor corresponded with a plaque engraved commemorative that handed to the colonel responsible for the AGA.
The new students of the AGA form their promotion number 72 of the military education center where they will, for the most part, fulfill five years of study to become officers of the Air Force.
Other students will spend one or two years depending on the body and specialty to which they belong.
The visit began with the traditional training of students in the Plaza de España before entering the hall of Plenos where the Mayor declared them "neighbors of the municipality of San Javier", after a brief presentation of the municipality of San Javier from its origin to the Actuliadad.
Colonel Juan Pablo Sánchez de Lara highlighted "the pride shown by the local population when it speaks of the AGA, which feels like something of theirs."
He also pointed out the historical importance of the two institutions as shown by the work of collecting information that has already begun to prepare the 75th anniversary of the creation of the AGA to be held in 2018, said the colonel who reminded the students that San Javier will always be linked to his military career.
The visit continued with a floral offering to the patron San Francisco Javier, in the church of San Javier where they had opportunity to know the Parochial Museum.
Later they visited the Museum of San Javier and the facilities of the Polideportivo Municipal from where they returned to the Academy.
