	Although Spanish leader and Field Marshal (''[[Generalísimo]]'') [[Francisco Franco]] did not enter the war on the side of Germany, he permitted volunteers to join the German Army (''[[Wehrmacht Heer]]'') on the clear and guaranteed condition they would exclusively fight against [[Bolshevism]] ([[Soviet Union\|Soviet]] [[Communism]]) on the Eastern Front, and not against the [[Western Allies]] or any [[Western Europe]]an occupied populations. In this manner, he could keep Spain at peace with the Western Allies whilst simultaneously repaying [[Adolf Hitler\|Hitler]] for his support during the [[Spanish Civil War]] (see [[Condor Legion]]). Spanish foreign minister [[Ramón Serrano Súñer]] made the suggestion to raise a volunteer corps, and at the commencement of [[Operation Barbarossa]], Franco sent an official offer of help to Berlin.
