Our President decided that each pupil entering school should adopt a fallen hero of our history. The aim is to keep our history and its memory well alive amongst the younger generations...
.
As far as I am concerned, I decided to adopt Aminias de Pallene. Aminias de Pallene is a Greek sailor and a fallen hero of the naval battle of Salamis.
.
I choose a Greek because in the deepest part of my heart I am convinced that our modern democracies are heavily relying on the ancient Greek model. In fact, as much as we are endebt to the Roman Republic for the establishment of our Rights, we are endebt to the Greek for the conception of our Democracy.
.
My tribute to him. Long life to Aminias de Pallene....
