INFANTERIA DE MARINA TIE

The Marine Infantry (Spanish: Infantería de Marina) is the naval infantry branch of the Spanish Navy responsible for conducting amphibious warfare. Fully integrated into the Spanish Navy's structure, the branch's history dates back to 1537 when Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor formed the Compañías Viejas del Mar de Nápoles, making it the oldest marine unit in existence. I have included a Detente Scapular in the back of the tie. In 1870, Pope Pius IX said this about the Detente: "It is a heavenly thought: It does come from Heaven. I give my blessing to this Heart and I want all those who conform to this model to receive this same blessing without needing any other. Furthermore, I want the devil to have no power over those who carry this Heart." Pope Pius IX granted 100 days of indulgence to those who carry the Detente.
