The Xunta has recognized this morning the work of a rescuer.
It is Francisco Javier Díez Ponce, which has received a metope in recognition of his 26 years of service as a coast guard in the helicopter Fishing 1. A lifetime saving other lives. He no longer keeps track of those rescued.
He and his team were the first to arrive from the Presgige catastrophe operation. Remember those days of the accident as the most difficult.
