This colourful map, titled Police Map of Navarra, shows the
distribution of the various law enforcement agencies in the province of
Navarra. There are four different agencies, among which the Guardia Civil with
their (in)famous tricornos, but more
interesting for us boineros are the
berets worn by the Policía foral de Navarra (in Basque the Foruzaingoa) and the National Police (or El Cuerpo Nacional de Policía - CNP).
Where the CNP wear a very “middle of the road” military style
beret, the Foruzaingoa adopted the beautiful bright red taxepla (similar to the Basque Regional Police and the Police of Bilbao Municipality).
All three have their distinctive insignia woven into the txapela.
