March is in present time held to be the third month of the year in both the Julian and Gregorian calendars. It is
one of the seven months which are 31 days long.

The name of March comes from ancient Rome, when March was the first month of the year and named Martius
after Mars or Ares, the Greek god of war.

Un grupo de 200 soldados de la Guardia Nacional y la Fuerza
Aérea participan de un adiestramiento que los preparara para
atender desastres naturales de gran magnitud, así como
explosiones, ataques terroristas y búsqueda de víctimas en todo
tipo de escenario.
La certificación los convertirá en la primera unidad de respuesta
rápida que trabajará en conjunto con las agencias estatales de
emergencia.
El adiestramiento, que se realiza en el Campamento Santiago de Salinas, culminará el 11 de febrero y
una vez estén debidamente certificados podrán también detectar elementos químicos, biológicos,
radiológicos y nucleares.
"Ha sido una integración maravillosa con las agencias en nuestra misión por salvar vidas y proteger
propiedades", dijo el sargento mayor José Padilla.
El CERFP, por sus siglas en inglés, provee la capacitación al personal para reaccionar a una
emergencia de entre seis y doce horas.
