The deputy delegate of the Government in A Coruña, María Rivas, traveled this morning to the headquarters of the Civil Guard of Carballo, together with Fernando Pedreira Lata, Colonel Chief of the Command of the Civil Guard of A Coruña, and the mayor, Evencio Ferrero, to welcome the 55 new students in practices that are incorporated from today to different positions of the province, in which they will spend about a year, after completing their training in the academy.
In the case of the Carballo company, 13 personnel are incorporated in practices: 8 in the Carballés barracks themselves, 3 in the Corcubión stand, 1 in A Laracha and 1 in Camariñas. The rest of the staff is distributed between the companies of A Coruña (15), Ferrol (4), Santiago (12) and Noia (11).
During the event, Rivas stressed that this new incorporation represents “an important reinforcement for the territory and a sign of the real commitment of the Government of Spain to security, territorial cohesion and the defense of the rural environment”.
The subdelegate encouraged the new staff to live this stage with involvement and responsibility, noting that “today you begin a fundamental stage, not only to complete your training, but also to start living first-hand what public service means in Galicia, a land with character and soul”.
Rivas also valued the diversity of the territory to which they are incorporated. “You arrive in a province that combines coast and interior, urban areas and a rural area full of life,” he said, before highlighting the characteristics of the municipality of Carballo itself, which he defined as “a dynamic municipality, with strong identity of its own, crossing roads and head of region, where tradition and modernity coexist.”
The subdelegate stressed that each member of the body will be an active part of the response to current challenges in terms of citizen security, from the protection of the natural and maritime environment to the fight against gender violence or computer crime. “Every performance will count. Every decision will have an impact. And every day will be an opportunity to grow and contribute to the common good,” he said.
The subdelegate encouraged the trainee students to make the most of this stage, not only to acquire technical knowledge, but also to internalize the values that define the Civil Guard. “Observe, ask, listen and participate,” Rivas insisted, recalling that “here you are going to learn not only procedures, but also what it means to be part of a Body that symbolizes public service, integrity and loyalty.”
Finally, Rivas wanted to recognize the work of the veteran staff that will accompany the students in this stage of practice. “You come to learn from professionals who have been serving with dedication, vocation and responsibility for years.”
