History

The Amphibious Forces Command, with its ships and personnel, since the integration of the first aircraft into the force of the Greek Fleet, participated in the front line in all the historical moments of the struggles of the nation and the Hellenic Navy with the same mental outburst and self-denial that the rest of the Greek People showed. Thus, he rightfully acquired the appropriate space within the golden pages of the book of struggles and sacrifices of the Greek Navy
