Pardo Agudín rol in the defense of Nador

Abstract

In the terrible days of Annual, the defence of Nador was one of the episodes that aroused feelings of admiration because of its heroism. But Lieutenant Colonel Pardo Agudín went over requesting the Laureada to being prosecuted in a martial court, based precisely on the same reasons for requesting the Laureada. The martial court acquitted him, but, over time and after his death, the Laureada was denied. This article tries to clarify the action of the lieutenant colonel as well as the resolutions of the courts in the light of primary sources which little have been scantly used until nowadays.
