An Army soldier dies during a military training in Zaragoza

An Army soldier has died during an instructional activity at the San Gregorio Training Center, in Zaragoza, for reasons that are being investigated, as reported this Sunday by the Ministry of Defense.

The deceased soldier, identified with the initials F.J.G.J., was stationed in the X Field Artillery Group, belonging to the 'Guzmán el Bueno' X Brigade, and had joined the Army in 2018.

In its statement, the Army Headquarters has expressed its "deep pain" over the death and has conveyed its "sincere condolences" and its "unconditional support" to the soldier's family and colleagues.

The Association of Spanish Troops and Sailors (ATME) has also mourned the death of the soldier and has conveyed its condolences to the family, friends and colleagues of the unit, who have been made available for whatever they need.

The association recalled that soldiers carry out a high-risk profession that, in its opinion, is not sufficiently recognized, and has regretted the consequences that these tragedies have for their families and friends.
