History

The Condor Legion was a German military unit that fought alongside the Spanish nationalists in the Spanish Civil War of 1936 to 1939. It became known mainly for its air force detachment that used the conflict to develop new bombing tactics. These were then widely used during the Second World War.

The ground unit was known as Gruppe Imker (Group Beekeeper), and the Panzer units of Gruppe Imker were known as Gruppe Drohn ...  e (Group Drone).

Interpreters wore a diamond-shaped patch in branch colour with a silver-coloured lower case “i” on it on the left breast pocket. It was also sometimes worn on the front of the cap.
