Greek Propaganda Poster

 

 
Color slide group of Panzer-Aufklärungs-Abteilung 5 in Greece, 1941. A very nice poster grasped the interest of the photographer. March 7, 1941 is the day the British expeditionary force arrived in Greece. The Germans attacked in April and overwhelmed them. 'Aera' is a traditional Greek battle cry going back to antiquity. The distinctive shoes with the woolen pom-pom are Tsarouchia, traditionally worn by the Evzone, the famous light and mountain infantry
