They mean, “Come and get them!They live on today as the most notable quote in military history. And so began the classic example of courage and valor in its dismissal of overwhelming superiority of numbers, wherein the heart and spirit of brave men overcame insuperable odds. Today, there lies a plaque dedicated to these heroes all at the site. It reads: “Go tell the Spartans, travelers passing by, that here, obedient to their laws we lie".
"Historical justice, however, obliges me to say that of the opponents that have taken up arms against us, MOST PARTICULARLY THE GREEK SOLDIERS, HAVE FOUGHT WITH THE GREATEST BRAVERY AND CONTEMPT OF DEATH. They only capitulated when further resistance became impossible and therefore useless"

Greeks are born not manufactured, we do not chose we are chosen, those who understand need no explanation, those who don't, don't matter...

I was drafted into the PanzerBattalion 154.
Unfortunately I felt terrible ill after only 4 month of service and spent the rest of the time in the BwZk in Koblenz.
I'm not an active reservist, becasue of my limited time in service, but probably I'm going to join some exercises in some years, just for fun.

Hmmm. Part of the 2nd Bde of the 4th right, at Ft. Hood? Ft. Hood is built in part on land that came from my wife's family. They still have a family cemetery on the post. Interesting. I'd have never guessed it from your moniker. Are you of Arab descent?
