First world war was a conflict that took place between 1914 and 1918. Due to internal and external situation, king Alfonso XIII and the spanish president Eduardo Dato decided keep Spain like a neutral country. However, the spanish position was active from the humanitarian point of view. It was created a pro captives office, Spain collaborated with the international red cross, some military observer were sent to the european frontline and german refugees were attended in Guinea. The aim of the study is to describe the work of the spanish medical officers deployed like observers in the european frontline during first world war (i.e Captains Mariano Gómez Ulla, Fidel Pagés Miravé and Antonio Vallejo Nágera). We have analized too, the health care provided to german refugees in Guinea (in those days Spanish colonie) during the same period.
