Шаблон:Infobox military unit The 81st Mixed Brigade was a unit of the Spanish Republican Army created during the Spanish Civil War. It operated on the Teruel, Levante and Estremadura fronts.
History
The unit was created in March 1937 from the militarization of the Torres-Benedito and Iberia columns.Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn Among the militiamen there came to be some internal reluctance to the militarization,Шаблон:Sfn which took effect more slowly than expected. The brigade, which was assigned to the 39th Division,Шаблон:Sfn came under the initial command of Rafael Trigueros Sánchez-Rojas. Shortly after Trigueros would be replaced by Francisco Fayós Casarico.
In June 1937 the 81st MB was assigned as a reserve unit of the 13th Army Corps and sent to the rear, at Segorbe. A month later, it took part in the failed Battle of Albarracín,[n. 1] the 81st lead a rout, having to be disarmed by the 24th Division that had come to relieve it. Later it would be assigned to the 64th Division.Шаблон:Sfn
In December 1937 the unit took part in the Battle of Teruel, participating in the first movements of the republican offensive. The 81st MB was sent to the Campillo sector, where the unit carried out some looting actions.Шаблон:Sfn On December 30, nationalists attacked the positions manned by the 16th Mixed Brigade, which fell back and dragged the 81st MB into its withdrawal. The 81st Brigade suffered serious casualties, including that of its commander - Commander Fayós, who was taken prisoner by the nationalists. After being subjected to a reorganization by its new boss - Elisardo Martínez Sánchez - the unit took part in the capture of Teruel.
After the fighting in Teruel, the unit was incorporated into the Northern Coastal Defense Grouping.[n. 2] The unit remained deployed in Catalunya until May 17, 1938, when it was transported by boat to the coastal sector of Castellón de la Plana —as the republican zone had been cut in two in mid-April. The 81st MB was sent as reinforcement to this area, although it would not participate in the Levante Offensive.
On July 22, the 81st MB moved to the Extremadura front, where it joined the 10th Division, and then moved on to the Zújar Division in the Almorchón sector. After the Battle of Merida pocket, the brigade was incorporated into the 41st Division of the 7th Army Corps.Шаблон:Sfn The unit remained on this front during the rest of the war, without actually taking part in relevant military operations.Шаблон:Sfn
