Greek-Cypriot Army IN ACTION!-Ελληνο-κυπριακος στρατος!

enjoy greek armed forces in action,,,,The Cypriot National Guard (Greek: Εθνική Φρουρά, Ethnikí Frourá; Turkish: Kıbrıs Ulusal Muhafızları), also known as the Greek Cypriot National Guard, is the combined arms military force of the Republic of Cyprus comprising land, air, and naval elements. It consists of active duty, reserve and militia personnel.

Greece maintains the Hellenic Force in Cyprus (Greek: Ελληνικές Δυνάμεις Κύπρου or ΕΛΔΥΚ), but this is not part of the Republic of Cyprus military.The National Guard was established in 1964 as a force composed entirely of ethnic Greek Cypriots, following the 1963--1964 breakdown of social and political relations between Greek and Turkish Cypriots on the island of Cyprus.[1] Under the early Constitution of 1960--1963, Cyprus was entitled to an army of 2,000 men, to be made up of 60% Greek and 40% Turkish personnel. The first elected President of the Republic of Cyprus, Archbishop Makarios III, proposed thirteen constitutional amendments to the 1960 constitution, which would have adjusted distribution of manpower and voting power for all civil and military services. This adjustment was aimed at giving greater representation and influence to the Greek Cypriot majority, which at the time formed around 82% of the island's indigenous population.

Significant combat actions were seen between the National Guard and Turkish Cypriot combatants during this period, as the country slid into a state of civil war. Sporadic low-intensity conflict continued during parts of this period between Greek Cypriot and Turkish Cypriot armed elements across the island.

@grekos1940 nice joke, your military is inferior and your government is on the verge of a financial colapse. You couldnt afford sending a single platoon a meter into turkey. Last I checked we had your lands whenever we felt like it, and we lost it when our empire fell, you tried to take ours with the help of 50 other countries yet you couldnt maintain it for a week. Idiotic facist greeks like you will be good cannon fodder.
