Introduction

The NATO Rapid Deployable Spanish Corps (NRDC-SP), inheritor of the former Capitanía General de Levante, is a first level command of the Spanish Army that brings together all the basic elements of an Army  Corps Headquarters or a Land Component Command.

It also materalises the commitment Spain has to NATO, through the NATO Rapid Deployable Corps Spain (HQ NRDC-ESP) of the Atlantic Alliance, where the majority of the men and women work hand in hand with allied personnel from different nations.

The NATO Rapid Deployable Spanish Corps is made up of an Army Corps-level Staff under the command of a Major General, and situated in Valencia (Santo Domingo Barracks, Capitanía General of Valencia), as well as in Bétera (Base Jaime I), where the allied personnel are located.

Within its integrated units are: the nº1 Intelligence Regiment, the HQ Battalion of the NATO Rapid Deployable Spanish Corps and the 1st Military Police Batallion.

The Chief of this headquarters also benefits from a series of support organisations, such as: the Insitutional Relations Area, the Legal Advisor Office, the Adjuntacy, the HQ Support Office, the Public Affairs Office (press and protocol), the Economic Administration Head Office and HQ Sergeant Major.
