On his return to England, he became aware of the developing military dispute in Morocco, subsequently known as the First Moroccan Crisis. Having apparently resigned his military commission, he assisted the pretender to the throne Abdelhafid, to overthrow his brother Abdelaziz. This is how he acquired the title 'Kaid', or Commander.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Kaid Andrew Belton )〕 During the Spanish Civil War, he was arrested in Seville having crossed the border from Gibraltar.〔(''Foreign Intervention in Spain'', pg. 84 by Hispanicus ); retrieved on 2008-10-29〕 He was instrumental in establishing the Independent Overseas Command of the Legion of Frontiersmen in Africa.
