Requetés Milita
The Carlist Requétes came mostly from Navarre and were
highly religious, many regarding the war as a holy crusade. They
would often be accompanied by priests, who risked their lives to
perform last sacrament on the battlefield and who urged the men
on.

The most characteristic elements of the requetés are
the red berets and the use of civilian garments such as the
checked jacket made with blankets (typical navarrese blankets
were checked in brown, green, etc.).
Note also two Requetés emblems: the "San Andres
cross", in red over white, and the "detente",
a read and yellow emblem representing the Sacred Jesus Christ
Heart.
