His Majesty sat with Leonor and her fellow classmates.

Leonor’s father holds the military rank of Captain General of the Army, the Navy and the Air Force.

His Majesty trained at the General Military Academy in Zaragoza from September 1985 to July 1988, per Casa de S.M. el Rey.

Princess Leonor began her first year of military training in August of 2023 at the General Military Academy in Zaragoza.

Casa de S.M. el Rey has previously said that King Felipe and Queen Letizia consider Leonor’s military training “very convenient and valuable: it reinforces the capabilities of service and dedication, and facilitates the representation tasks that she must assume, as Heir of the Crown of Spain, in accordance with the provisions of Title II of the Constitution.”
