On August 17, 1936, Alexandre Bóveda, according to Castelao the driving force and heart of nationalism, was assassinated in La Caeira after a sham trial that condemned him to death for "treason." On August 12, 1975, Franco's police murdered nationalist militant Moncho Reboiras in Ferrol, shooting him three times in the back. A few days earlier, the government declared the death sentence handed down to Humberto Baena, a man from Vigo, executed on September 27, 1975, "illegal and null." These are three dates, three people, among the thousands we could mention. In Galicia, where in 1936 there was no battle front, but rather a fierce war that gripped the country and its people with brutal repression, exile, hunger, misery and death, we were able to maintain an anti-Franco guerrilla movement—not a maquis movement—well into the 1960s (Jose Castro Veiga, considered the last guerrilla killed in combat, was assassinated on March 10, 1965).
