PATCHES OZNAKE ZA RUKAV

     Španjolska kopnena vojska postoji neprekidno još od vadavine Kralja Ferdinanda i Kraljice Izabele u 15. vijeku. Do 1065. još je bila sastavljena od klasičnih regimenti i divizija. Reformom 1965 se vojska dijeli na Interventne i operacionalne formacije i usvaja se brigada kao glavni sastavni dio divizije. Ipak 1994. se ukidaju divizije i brigade postaju najviše formacije. Izuzetak je divizija Brunete koja ostaje dio Euro korpusa i to jačana još jednom (trećom) mehaniziranom brigadom. Sadašnje brigade se sastoje od dvije regimente koje u svojem sastavu maju p jedan ili dva bataljona. I ako su pješadijske regimente samo administrativne jedinice, one nastavljaju tradicije starijih jedinica i njima komandira pukovnik, dok brigadiri imaju komandu nad brigadama. U slučaju rata formiraju se korpusi, koji mogu biti brdski ili mehanizirani. Postoji šest vojnih područja i to Centralno, Južno, Levant, Istočni Pirineji, Zapadni Pirineji te Sjeverozapadno područje.

     The Spanish Army has existed continuously since the reign of King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella (late 15th century). Until 1965 the Spanish Army was composed of “classical” regiments and divisions. In 1965 a reorganization was undertaken that divided Army forces in Intervention and Operational Defense formations adopting the brigade as the main component of Divisions. Since 1994 Divisions were abolished and brigades were adopted as the highest level formation, but when Spain became part of Eurocorps, the decision was taken to maintain the Brunete division updating it with a third mechanized brigade.

      In the Spanish Army, brigades are composed of 2 regiments of 1 or 2 battalions each. Although infantry regiments are only administrative units, they keep the traditions of older units and are commanded by Colonels. Brigades are commanded by Brigadiers. In case of war, a Corps sized unit would have been committed to operations in the Southern theater of operations. This Corps could have been either mechanized or mountain. There are six commands: Central, Southern, Levante, Eastern Pyrenees, Western Pyrenees and Northwestern Command.

     Za dan osnivanja 10. mehanizirane pješadijske brigade „Guzman el Bueno“ možemo smatrati 01. 08. 1984. kada je kraljevskim ukazom br. 1451/1984 o reorganizaciji vojske stvorena ova jedinica. Stvorena je od jedinica koje svoje postojanje mogu pratiti kroz vjekove. 1995. reorganizacija brigade se završava preseljenjem u bazu Cerro Muriano. Od tada brigada sudjeluje u mnogim vježbama sa stranim vojskama, a uzima i aktivno učešće u misijama van zemlje kao što je misija u BiH, Kosovo itd. Brigada se sastoji od komande, komandnog bataljona, 2 pješadijska mehanizirana bataljona (Izabela II, i Cordoba), jedinice poljske artiljerije, logističke grupe i inžinjerijske jedinice (Unidad de Zapadores 10).
