The
Escuela Naval Militar de Oficiales (ENM) at
Marín,
Pontevedra, in north-western
Spain, is the
Spanish institution in charge of training the
Spanish Navy's officer class, as well as other naval personnel. It has been established here since 1943, when it was moved from its previous location at San Carlos near
San Fernando,
Cadiz. Virtually all Spanish naval officers are trained here. According to an unwritten tradition, the Director of the ENM is always promoted to
Admiral.
