On Tuesday 27 February 2018, a celebration event was held  at the Hellenic Armed Forces Officers’ Club for  the 70 years since the establishment of the Special Forces.  We paid  the due tribute and the appropriate respect to our legendary commandos.  We wish all the best to the Special Forces personnel, worthy successors of  their glorious history, of which we are all proud.

The motto ‘’Who Dares Wins’’ is not just the motto of the Special Forces but of the Hellenic Army as well.   Only through daring can we overcome all obstacles and lead our Army to the future, being competitive, effective and a pillar of national power.
