The Military Easter has a deep tradition in the Spanish military life. Its celebration dates back to the reign of Carlos III, when, on January 6, 1782, the royal troops recovered the town of Mahon Menorca, which was in English hands. As an expression of joy, Carlos III ordered the viceroys, captains general, governors and military commanders on the feast of the Epiphany, bringing together the fittings and on his behalf to notify commanders and officers of the armies his congratulations.
