The Turkish Army has retained a permament military presence in Cyprus since 1960, along with Greece, originally in the form of a garrison, authorised by the Cyprus Constitution of 1960. This is the order of battle of those forces, prior to 1974:

Gφnyeli Grubu (Gφnyeli Group) * 2 Piyade Bolugu (2nd Infantry Company) * 3 Piyade Bolugu (3rd Infantry Company) * Agir Silah Bolugu (Heavy Weapons Company)

Ortakoy Grubu (Ortakoy Group) * 1 Piyade Bolugu (1st Infantry Company) * 4 Piyade Bolugu (4th Infantry Company) * Alay Kh. Srv. Bolugu (Regimental HQ Company)

In July 1974, Turkey invaded the north of Cyprus after a coup by the Cypriot National Guard against the democratically-elected President, Archbishop Makarios III. Turkish forces involved in the 1974 action included: * An airborne (parachute) brigade (Brig.Gen. Everen) * A commando brigade (Brig.Gen. Demirbag) * A Special Strike Force Landing Brigade (Brig.Gen. Tuncer) * The 39th Infantry Division (Maj.Gen. Demirel) * The 28th Infantry Division (Maj.Gen. Polat)

Since the 16th of August 1974, the Turkish Army has retained occpuational control of the northern 37% of Cyprus.

"Turks are the bravest of brave"

-Douglass Mc. Arthur

CHECK THIS OUT: This sentence was said because 700 Turkish Soldiers charged against 200 000 Chinese in 1950s. And Greek soldiers attended the same battle but THEY WERE RETREATING AT THAT MOMENT...

How many are they since they are the most populated unit?

[koskinas97]

Why don't you conquer the world or the moon you idiots!How can you call those villagers commandos?They don't even have the necessary military gear.And you may be brave but the Greeks are the best patriots and place Greece above all in their lives.Try to invade Greece and you'll see what will happen to your ballerinas.Not by special forces, but by plain soldiers of the front lines.

@Janissary1991 Since it was not our fight, there is no reason to die for Korea.I don't care about Korea.I would have retreated like talking my dog for a walk.If we had to fight for Greece, things would be different.Like in WW2, "Heroes fight like Greeks"

OK lets get 1 thing straight. The world military rankings for strength is legit, TURKEY use to be 10th. Now they are 6th. U.S.A is first than RUSSIA. GREECE IS 33. so please dont say Turkey is weak or shit, just because you dont like us. I AM A TURK AND GREECE IS NICE. i actually like it, very beautiful. some people are dicks, but than again there are bitches everywhere. Just Respect Us and We Will Respect You.

"Historical justice forces me to admit that among all the enemies who stand against us, the Greek soldier above all, fought with the most courage. He surrendered himself only when the continuation of resistance was not possible any longer, and when he had no reason not to..However, he fought so bravely, that even his enemies can not deny their respect for him.. Thus,the Greek prisoners of war were released immediately, having in mind their heroic stance"
