El Blocao de la Muerte - Spanish Legion song
I own nothing, all credits go to FBIV. Original description below.
This song is a popular Spanish song often used in the legion.
The version I used is from a guy called Sonakito Barriero.

In September 1921, the position of the blockhouse of Dar Hamed, installed in the lower side of the Gurugu mountain and to which the legionaries call "The Bad one", was constructed with sacks of earth and covered with planks of wood and with a fence around. The enemy was entrenched in large contingents, in Nador and on the hills that dominated him. On 14 September, the blockhouse "El Malo" is garrisoned by troops of the Disciplinary Battalion, who relieve the Legionaries who are returning to the Operative Units. On September 15, the blockhouse is attacked harshly, leaving its defense very weakened. Seeing that the blockade "El Malo" is about to fall into enemy power, Lieutenant Agulla, who garrisoned with his legionaries the Second Hut called the Atalayón, requests permission to rescue Dar Hamed, permission that is denied him since his men are necessary in the defense of the Atalayón.
Volunteers are requested to reinforce during the night "El Malo". The officer appoints Corporal Suceso Terrero López so that, along with 14 Legionaries, they will rescue the blockade "El Malo" and resist there until the expeditionary forces arrive, knowing that they will fight against a very superior enemy in number. All are aware of the little chance they have in this unequal struggle to get back to life. Corporal Suceso and its 14 legionaries begin the march, they break the enemy's encirclement and they come to succor the block. Towards midnight the enemies approach an artillery piece 50 meters from the block and shoot it. The Moors enter "El Malo" and fight with the wounded, killing everyone and finally taking the position, but at that moment the expeditionary forces arrive.
For this reason, the Corporal Suceso Terrero López is considered a hero within the Spanish Legion.
Every year in his honor is celebrated in Hormilla a solemn military action programmed by the Brotherhood of Former Legionary Knights. This meeting, which we have been celebrating since 1988 in our town, counts on the presence of military and civil authorities, crown offerings and the Act of Honor to the Dead, as well as a brotherhood meal.
Lyrics:
escucha bien esta historia No pierdas ningún detalle
Un hombre que era un cualquiera Que en su tierra no era nadie
Cansado de no hacer nada y que a nadie le importase
Que no le echaran de menos si a la legión se alistase
Quería sencillamente hacer algo con su vida
El tío era un valiente y allí se fue pa melilla
Salió con un pelotón junto a 13 compañeros
El cabo que les guio era suceso terreros
El malo estaba sitiado no había escapatoria
Habían bombardeado y allí encontraron su gloria
Que se entere su familia que lo sepa el pueblo entero
Había dado su vida había muerto sin miedo
y no le importa medallas, honores ni na
Solo quería servir a su patria
Y sin pensar en su vida y en que pasara
Mayor honor es morir por España
Y en el blocao situado bajo el gurugu
Necesitaban una ayuda urgente
Y voluntarios acudían sabiendo muy bien
Que aquello era el blocao de la muerte
Ya apasao mucho tiempo y a veces nos olvidamos
Así siempre ha sido el tercio a ver si nos enteramos
Era gente sin estudios y algunos muertos de hambre
Dejaron atrás sus vidas y murieron en combate
No tenía miedo a nada la muerte su compañera
Su vida no vale nada morían por su bandera
Que salgan los banderines y resuenen las cornetas
Cojamos todos la papa porque esta es también su fiesta
Por que el 20 de septiembre es el día legionario
De los que aun estamos vivos y de los que se marcharon
Es una parte de historia que escribieron con su sangre
Y nosotros en su memoria queríamos recordarle
Y no le importa medallas, honores ni na
Solo quería servir a su patria
Y sin pensar en su vida y en que pasara
Mayor honor es morir por España
Y no le importa medallas, honores ni na
Solo quería servir a su patria
Y sin pensar en su vida y en que pasara
Mayor honor es morir por España
Y en el blocao situado bajo el gurugu
Necesitaban una ayuda urgente
Y voluntarios acudían sabiendo muy bien
Que aquello era el blocao de la muerte
