The Evzones have represented the elite of the Greek army since the long war of independence from the Ottoman Empire (1821-32). The word Evzone apparently means ���well belted one���, and has its roots in Homeric literature. Most people who are familiar with Greece today will know of these colourful soldiers, wearing their Foustanella (pleated kilt) and pom-pom shoes, while fulfilling their highly disciplined ceremonial duties in Athens.
