Welcome to War and Tactics!    War and Tactics Forum is currently undergoing some modifications that might disable features you are used to. This is unabvoidable as we have to update the forum engine to a new structure that is incompatible with many of the features we had used so far. The good news: WaT will be more secure and stable, and most of the features we uninstalled will be a natural part of the new structure anyway. For the rest we will be looking for solutions.

The father of Spanish Legion




A great hero, I will complete the post later.

He was wounded 4 times, including the loss of an arm and an eye. So when X Bandera of Legion was founded it was called "Millán Astray" and included in their emblem was the arm and the eye which refered to the fierce of the founder.

That is a hell of a tradition to live up to my friend. He knew the meaning of Semper Fidelis deep in his heart.
