Default Re: Greek Army TO&E and OOB errors

Redcoat2,
From the beginning of Greek civil war the Brits were the main supplier of the Greek army until 1948-49 when the Americans took their place.
The first armor and recce units were formed with various armored vehicles, used by the British army during the war (Centaur A27L tank, Universal Carrier, Marmon Mk IVf, Humber Scout Car and Mk IV).
During the civil war, the Greek army also used four types of British made towed artillery.
- Pdr25 howitzer (remained in service until 1987)
- 5.5 inch howitzer (in service until 1955 when replaced by newly acquired M-144 155mm, but a few of them remained in reserve until 1990).
- 3.7 inch mountain howitzer (entered service in 1948 and went obsolete by 1955).
- 6pdr AT gun (in service until 1952, but also used in island fortifications until 2004).

The above information comes from the official "Military Review" magazine (Hellenic Army General Staff).
