Legión Española

Recruitment of non-Spanish personnel, which never exceeded 10% of its manpower, ended in 1986. In 1987, the Spanish Legion was divided into four tercios, a unit intermediate between a regiment and a brigade, each commanded by a colonel.

They marched at 160 steps per minute in this parade to people's delight!!
