COE - Legionnaires - Para-troops Photos

found some really cool photos, all from legionaries, COE and airborne troops

I guess people don't really care about old rare spanish uniforms here...
one of the rarest sets of photos i ever found, which some amazing details of very rare uniforms...

The old spanish para uniform is one of my holy grails, there's very few photos of the uniforms "in use"

Great photos Danilo - thanks for sharing. Have referred this thread to an associate of mine who is ex-Spanish SF ...

Whoa!! How did I miss all these photos?!? They're brilliant. It's going to take me a few hours to go through them all and look at the details. Which is a good thing

Notice that the picture of the guy with the orange Airforce Zapadores jacket has a non-regulation Army Para Brigade dress uniform arm badge on the pocket. Definitely shouldn't be there.

And yeah, that's on my Holy Grail list too

Steve,
I knew YOU would like them... it seems that the Para-soldier is wearing things off regulation... bad soldier hahaahha - i wish i had his jacket thou...

Filupe,
thanks for your comments, i hope your friend will enjoy the photos as well...

Spectacular photos. Too bad these uniforms are so scarce.

Excellent reference photo's...I had no idea there was such a diverse array of camo used by these guys

Thanks for posting this lot up Mate

Magnificent photos Danilo,

Very interesting and rarely seen images of the beautiful Spanish patterns.

The photo of the para uniform that all Spanish camo collectors drool over is particularly interesting.

I notice that the para is wearing a BRIPAC beret, as well as the colored patch below the "rokiski".
Believe I have seen at least 2 other photos of this uniform where the BRIPAC patch was in evidence.

As this uniform was used by EZAPAC, does anyone know if it was also worn by members of BRIPAC, perhaps
on a limited basis ?

This version of the M62 uniform is among the rarest of Spanish uniforms; they certainly were not mass produced.

Can anyone shed some light on this very interesting topic ?

Hey all,

Just found a old photo of an even older friend who was a Spanish Para in the 70s





Wish I had more...rip...

Found this very interesting photo of a mix of Spanish Legion uniforms.

Yup, love that one Here's a couple more from the same exercise.





Although, maybe the last one ought to be posted in the Italian section? I love the use of camo on the Beretta AR-70's.

Good photos, G..

I saved the one with San Marco Marines and Spanish Legion for future posting..

Here are a few more of Spanish units.
