Like other years, in various parts of Spain the Three Magi have arrived accompanied by the Armed Forces, in various ways. You can see here some images of the reception they have received from children and adults. In Logroño, the Three Magi have arrived in an NH-90 helicopter of the III Maneuver Helicopter Battalion (BHELMA III) of the Airmobile Forces of the Army, that has landed in the Las Gaunas football stadium:

In Santa Cruz de Tenerife, the Magi have arrived aboard an AB-212 helicopter of the Maneuver Helicopter Battalion VI (BHELMA VI):

The Magi also arrived by helicopter at the Gando Air Base, on the island of Gran Canaria, but in this case it was an AS-332 Super Puma from the 46th Wing of the Air Force:

Their Majesties of the East also used a helicopter to reach Lardero, in La Rioja, and in this case they did so in an EC-135 of the Civil Guard Air Service:

At the Torrejón Air Base, the Magi have arrived in a truck from the Military Emergency Unit (UME), specifically in a Multipurpose Tactical Intervention Vehicle (VINTAC) for CBRN tasks of the Intervention Group in Technological and Environmental Emergencies (GIETMA):

At the "Cabo Noval" Barracks in Siero (Asturias) they have received the Three Magi by land, in a convoy made up of several vehicles from the "Principe" Infantry Regiment No. 3 of the "Galicia" VII Brigade (BRILAT) of the Army, in addition to a van from the National Police:

But without a doubt, the Three Magi have had their greatest gesture of audacity at the Alcantarilla Air Base, where they have arrived after jumping by parachute from a CASA C-212 Aviocar transport plane of the 721 Squadron of the Air Force, accompanied by two paratroopers from the Air Force Acrobatic Parachuting Patrol (PAPEA):

I hope that Their Majesties of the East bring you all the gifts that you have asked for. Happy Three Magi day everyone!
