In the 1990s, the Legion underwent a profound restructuring to improve its operation and effectiveness in combat. Since then it has become one of the military units of the Spanish Army that has participated in more combat fronts. An example of this has been his intervention in several international peacekeeping missions in different areas of the world such as Bosnia, Albania, Kosovo, Macedonia, Iraq, Afghanistan, Congo and Lebanon.<\/p>\n
The Legion is structured into four Thirds:<\/p>\n
- \n
- Third ‘Great Captain, 1st of the Legion, located in Melilla<\/li>\n
- Tercio ‘Duque de Alba’, 2nd of the Legion, located in Ceuta<\/li>\n
- Tercio ‘Don Juan de Austria’, 3rd of the Legion, located in Viator, Almer\u00eda<\/li>\n
- Tercio ‘Alejandro Farnesio’, 4th of the Legion, located in Ronda, M\u00e1laga<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Since its origins, The Legion has always promoted a cult of combat and downplaying the relevance of death. This is intended to minimize the natural fear of dying, to encourage the heroic acts necessary to carry out their role as professional shock troops. This is achieved in part by instilling in its soldiers the so-called ‘legionary mystique’, symbolized in the so-called ‘Legionary Creed’.<\/p>\n
NOW<\/h3>\n
The Legion is currently active in the foreign theaters of operations in Afghanistan and Lebanon. Due to the social movements of the last decade, it does not have the popularity of the past, but the firmness of its ideology remains intact.<\/p>\n
