The dedication of a public space in Estepona to the Spanish Legion has been approved by the City Council in the recent Plenary session. This decision highlights the commitment of this military force, both in national crisis situations and in international peacekeeping missions. Since its establishment in 1920, the Spanish Legion has been recognized for its discipline, combativeness, and quick deployment capabilities in conflicts and missions worldwide. The Legion’s role in stabilization missions in crisis areas has been particularly notable, with deployments in various countries such as Bosnia-Herzegovina, Iraq, and Mali. The Legion’s contribution to relief efforts during the Covid-19 pandemic and after natural disasters like the Dana in Valencia has also been acknowledged. The City Council of Estepona has a history of honoring the work of security forces, and now pays tribute to the Spanish Legion for their dedication and service.
