Germany send to Franco general a lot of help during the spanish civil war, ... planes of the "condor legion" , ammo, tanks, and a u-boats were send to patrol the med against the republican fleet . After ,in wwII, spain return some of help, and was near to enter in the war in the axis side. finally didn´t join, but allow u-boat ressuply in spanish ports,send the "blue division" to russian front , spy activities, and send wolframium to germany until 1944.
