Men of the Kaisariani Exemplary Battalion of ELAS, 1944
A detachment of the Kaisariani Exemplary Battalion of ELAS presenting arms during the period of the Liberation. The Battalion, consisting of a core of selected fighters from the battalions of the area during the Occupation, was supposed to serve as a model for the forces of ELAS, part of which was to be integrated into the future Greek Army.
The photo was taken by one of the pioneering Greek photojournalists, Dimitrios Floros (1911-1970).
