About the modern Hellenic Army was formed shorty after the creation of the State in 1828. The first tactical army battalion was established in August, 1828 after the respective order was given by the first head of state of the independent Greece, Ioannis Capodistrias. The new tactical army would replace the irregular military bands of the capetanei (καπεταναίοι - commanders) who had led the revolt against Ottoman Empire in 1821.

1940-1941 :
The Epic years of the Army . The Epic fights of the Army on the Albanian borbers against the fascist forces of Bennito Mousollini . After that an attack on Bulgarian borders on the Metaxa line (bunkers which built between 1932-5)
and the defeat of few brave soldiers against the unstapable german war machine , Greece surrenders .
1944-1949 :
The years of the Civil War for which every single one greek is disapointed .
1950-present :
No activity of the Army
