Doesn't help they were effectively cut off from the rest of Nato by France and Italy pulling out and essentially becoming another set of enemies.

I agree. The way I'm writing it up in my own campaign book is:
"Spain is not tormented by huge marauder groups like some parts of the world. Instead, it has suffered separatist rebellion, rioting, looting, and anarchy, as well as disease outbreaks, and corruption. In general, when government forces or civilian militias realize that non-Spanish NATO troops are in a given area, there will be surprise, wariness and, some cases, hostility, though not outright violence, but the following may happen in the worst reactions.
1. Military or police units may interdict them and try to send them back to where they came from.
2. More powerful military units may outright try to take them prisoner, certainly will want to know where they came from and why.
3. Civilians and others may be very wary of them, fearing invasion or something. In general, many civilians blame NATO and the Warsaw Pact for the War, and are not happy to see them. They are thought of as being warmongers and dangerous. People will be reluctant to help them or give them any information.
Marauder bands tend to be gang enforcers, groups of Anarchists on the warpath, looters/rioters, deserters, or separatist insurgents. The deserters usually become road robbers, gang members, or join the separatists. "
