The contribution of the Farnesio Regiment to the mission will be more than 120 soldiers, divided into 15 people to direct and coordinate, from the TTCC Headquarters in Burgos, the training modules developed by the units of the Army, the Navy and the Air and Space Army; and more than a hundred soldiers from the "Santiago" I/12 Light Armoured Cavalry Group, belonging to the "Farnesio", who will give the basic training courses in Toledo, making up the UFC.
